Re: help with chronic stomach pain and body odor!!

[Guest guest]

Mari,

Congrats on your weight loss but sorry to hear your having such trouble.

Where are you located? Are you taking your necessary vitamins and minerals? I

used to have severe pains in my lower stomach before surgery, I had IBS

Irretiable Bowel Syndrome. Have you been tested for that? I will keep you in

my

prayers and maybe someone here can lead you to a good specialist. Take care and

God bless!

I am so sorry to hear how bad you feel and 2 years out seems really odd to have

such pain. I know that the hernia you have can be very painful, my mother has

the same thing and sometimes she is just misserable.

If the doctors you have seen can no longer help you maybe you should try the

Mayo Clinic in MN. I don't know where you live, but this seems pretty serious

so to travel does not seem out of the question.

I am pre op so I am not speaking from experience but wish you the best in your

search to find a doc that can get to the bottom of your pain.

could anyone help me? i'm in terrible pain when i eat, even water

burns. i had gastric bypass almost 2 years ago and i don't seem to

get any better. i had a second surgery for blockage and i've been to

a gastric interologist. the scope found nothing but hyatal hyernia.

they have me on acifex and i've also been on protonix but the pills

don't heal my stomach. i think i may be malnutritioned because my

toes keep breaking and now i have my first cavity at age 33. i'm weak

and moody. yesterday i spent the morning on the floor of the bathroom

in the most pain i've ever had. sharp pain, i think it might have

been gas? the doctors can't help me. do you have any suggestions or

does anyone know of a doctor that specializes in gastric bypass

complications? also i have terrible underarm odor. i've tried tons of

different deoderants and with ever yone i reek in about 2 hours. i

found innermint online tonight, has anyone tried it or does anyone

have any other ideas? sorry to be such a downer... i have lose 150

lbs! please help,

Mari
