Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass   |  Help me - In pain It is almost 2am in morning here in New Zealand and I am in a great deal of pain. I am 5 months post op from a Lap Roux en y and apart from as tricture at about 8 weeks all has been well. Last night - just aroudn 10 pm, i started getting pain in my chest when i breathe too deeply in, and when i lie down, almost like the wind pain (trapped) I experienced when I was having the surgery. I also seem to be extrememly farty atm. I am wanting to know if anyone else has suffered from this post op? Cheers Janine |

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

| Super Moderator  | It may be just gas or something stuck but since you feel it in your chest, I suggest you contact your dr as promptly as you can, or go to the emergency room, or whatever is the equivalent system in your country. I think it's best to get immediate attention. ((((((HUGS)))) I hope you feel better soon.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Thanks Doc It is just when I breathe in and it just the botton of my breast bone, around the spot that I usually hold/push if I have slightly over eaten. I also seem to get a little relief if i burp..although this has always been really trick for me to do. It seems to have eased off in the last few minutes, but it also making me feel a bit nauseous. I have not as yet taken anything for it, and thought I might try some paracetemol. |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Panic over - at 2 inthe morning in the small rural town i live in there was nothing I could do till morning, so I took some paracetamol (okayed by the surgeon) and managed to sleep for 6 hours. Have woken up and feeling good. Have had a couple of big burps, so must just have been wind pain. I am due to talk to my surgeon's support team in a few days so I will mention it then. But I give you all my word if it does get worse then I will make the trek to the hospital in the nearest city. I have to honestly say though, that before I posted that question on here and I was a bit paniced. That is the beauty of this group - the support. Thanks team |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Hey!! So glad it has tapered off. I get pain around that area but also it is nown the side as well and it is pleurosy, (mine is), and the first time it started, I honestly thought I was having a heart attack.... ambos came and a quick trip to hospital, lots of pain meds etc, and now it comes and goes. Dont muck around with it though aye. I know the town you live in and it is the same here, but we arent that far from a fairly big hospital (each), so if in doubt, check it out. *HUGS*
