Christina,

When I read about under your bra-line, what came to my mind was gallbladder. Of course, it could be many other things too..for women, it could be the heart, or it could be lungs (pluerecy), ribs. Since you are so new out, it could also mean a perforation (rip) in your stoma (where the intestine was connected to your pouch during your rny). When you have a perf, air can travel through it and it rises...and gets caught. When I had my perfs, liquids that went through it hurt lower..like a stitch in the side that I got as a kid when I ran. The arm numbess is a new one on me too. I would definately contact your surgeon's office about both issues though. Any new pain is something that should be reported to them ASAP. That's what they get the big bucks for.

Way 2 go!
Hope the popcicles are sugar free. I have thought about buying some of the molds from Tupperware to freeze Isopure in and make protien popcicles. I am not sure if the Isopure would freeze or not. If it does that would be a good way to get protien and liquids and sooth the stomach.

I'm here and as I have you as a Facebook friend, you know I have been on there lately. I've just recently been posting on here again since I feel guilty that I have been absent. I am here and ready to keep in touch with everyone! Still struggling to get to goal. I have lost about 120lbs but gained back a few and am about 10lbs away from where I once was (at my lowest). Unforunatey I am still about 50 lbs away from goal so, I need to focus. Plus, I miss my OH buddies.

I only had to do clear liquids day before and at night only, but hang in there, this is the start of your new birthday.

 Well my first thought about the pain under your bra could be gas in the rib cage area but the numbness is another issue.  I would suggest you call your doctor's office and ask about it.  Mine has a person on call 24 hrs.  I think I'd call right away.  You don't want to play around with something like that.
