Re: help...unexplained pain

[Guest guest]

I have this occasionally. It seems to happen more when I eat stuff that

is high in fat. When I mentioned it to my doctor he suggested it might

be a muscle spasm or an intestinal thing and if it didn't stop soon to

let him know. I haven't eaten a lot of stuff that was high in fat since

and there is no more pain. Don't know if it is related or not but

definitely interesting.

I have this type of discomfort on a regular basis. I've been

diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome and have a prescription

called Nulev that I take. It helps to reduce the intestinal

spasms. Don't know if this is what you have but it is worth

checking into.

If you are able to still eat and drink, that reduces the chances of the

pain being caused by an intestinal problem. I would see a doctor if I

were you.

Nope, my gallbladder was removed at the time of the wls. Usually when I

eat fatty stuff it is also pretty spicy. I just don't do either really

well since the gallbladder was removed. Wonder if there is a correlation

there. Hmmm.
