Problem following GB surgery-help!
| Thu, 09-23-2004 - 10:26am |
I had my GB removed 8/2/04 and two weeks later I had reoccurring problem. If I don't eat something, anything in a 4 hour time span, I get a hunger pain which immediately progresses to a severe adominal pain. I find if I eat anything the pain is gone within five minutes. It also can occur if I don't eat anything before I go to bed, I am rudely awoken in the early am clammering for something to eat. This has never happened prior to the surgery and the surgeon says it is not related. Has anyone else experienced this?

But all I can do is ask you if you've covered all the basics, like:
-are you drinking enought water? Because not having enought water can make you have stomach pains.
-have you tried eating just one teaspoon of peanut butter before going to bed? It takes longer to digest(for anyone), but I wouldn't do it every night, because unfortunetly, peanut butter is very fattening.
I can't really think of anything else to give ya, but I hope this helps!
Take care, and I feel for ya! (this diet sucks!)
