OK guys this is why we are here right to support each other? So I need some people to help me think outside the box here for a min. I am in pain still can not eat and just hell depressed I think. I not the depressed oh I want to end my life I am the depressed if this **** does not get fixed soon I am ending someones life. ( just venting, not going to happen I am WAY too cute to go to jail) So here is the short list of problem and anything and everything you could think of that it could me let me know. I have started journal the date and times that anything goes into my mouth to help the docs, hoping to get some ideas to help them out. ( YES I want to tell the doc what is wrong so they know how to fix me..wow I do need help huh?)


12/03 rny bypass
12/30 dehydration
12/31 stricture ulcer
1/3-1/11 lead prisoner at the hospital bc Dr b is a meanie ( he cares just wont let me go home until I could drink 64, dude that's so hard when your in pain..geesh)
2/18 egd everything looks fine ulcer is healed..YEAH...thank you god its over......


Or so I thought so I still have the pain in between my boobs, this is pain not pressure. Pressure in my back and I ALWAYS have the bgs ( bubble guts). My pain is about a 5 normally sometimes a 8 that's when I tend to freak out. I left the hospital bc I could drink through the pain I can not eat through the pain and I am forever spitting something up. I only going to the potty for number 1 1-2 times a day and number 2 maybe 2times a week. So tell me am I normal? If I am I swear I will leave them alone, but I am starting to get scared. ( I don't scare easily) Dr. B told me it was gas but this is not gas pain this is someone sitting on my chest with an ice pic in my chest pain. Is that gas????? I hope it is. Okay so see guys not venting just asking for help in my EXTRA long post. So any ideas????

I really wish I had some wisdom to share but I  don't.  I just want you to know I am sorry you are going through this and pray they will get it figured out quickly.  I know for me I was lucky for the #2 thing to happen once a week at first.  I would keep bugging weight wise and don't feel bad about it.  That is what we pay them for.  Keep after it.  I hope some others that had the RNY will jump in and help you out.

You didn't say if you have your Gall Bladder or not? That is my first question....

Yes I still have my gall bladder. Sorry I take the following meds compazine for the vomiting 3 times a day I have prevacid table 30mg i take them like tic tacs. i dont really eat, normally it is like 2-3 bites of something and it is either coming up or coming out within 30mins. On top of it all I have carafate 4 times a day. I have gasx up the ying yang I should seriously have stock in them now. I have done everything my doc and dietitian have told me to do but i am at the point where I am like your all idiots I hate you all I quite, and I am running far far away. I fight the urget to go to the er bc I know all they will do is call the doctor and they are not use to bariatric patients.

I only had one gallbladder attack, that ended me up in the er. It started with the pain but mine was right below my boobs, it did go all the way around. Then not long after the pain started I started throwing up very badly. Even when I got to the er they could not get me to stop. Anyway I ended up getting admitted and my gallbladder removed.  My point in all this is they told me that vomiting was not a common sign of gallbladder issues, so maybe that is why they have not suspected yours???

I think Okiechic made a good point to ask about your gallbladder.  My gallbladder attacks were very painful.  And, it hurt between my boobs- right where the band of my bra would sit.  Maybe you have develped stones?  I couldnt' eat during that time either (waaaaay before WLS)

Call the nurses's station, please.  If you want to talk then PM me and I will give you my phone number.  Hang in there!  Or, you could contact Redheaded girl and set up a posse to go kick someone's butt!

I have maintained for one year at this point.  I am steady at -120 pounds.  =)

Yep, they should check the Gallbladder right away and I am surprised they didn't even suggest that....It feels like extreme gas pains and goes through to the back....EXTREMELY painful! Luckily, it is not a bad surgery....It is very common in WL patients too.

There is no way that this should still be going on.  I just don't get it!  You have every right to be pi$$ed off - I know I would be!  Please call WeightWise asap and tell them what's going on!

Extreme pain could mean gallbladder, or you may be impacted from being dehydrated, etc.  Twice a week is NOT enough.  Get the Fleet if you have to, but get that stuff outa there.
