Pain After Eatinh

In about 3 weeks post opt and on mushies I have been feeling a small sharp pain under my rib cage on the left side after I eat lately. Is it normal? Can it be a sign of a band slip? ??

i was just banded mid december so im no expert, but i get the same exact pain in the same exact place when ive eaten too much. it seems to be my signal that i went too far, even though what i ate was healthy. i seem to remember somebody said that because your stomach is full it expands and touches a nerve , which explains the sharp pain. if somebody out there has the correct info, feel free to correct me !! i found walking around helps alot.

Its probably gas

Try Gas x strips they help me.

I was banded on Nov 10th and I get the exact same pain when

1. I have over ate

2. when I have to do a BM.

Usually I can tell one from the other now but the pain is in the same spot for both. Don't know why.

Yep that is the "you ate too much" signal!!! Feels like a sharp runners cramp? That is definitely from eating too much. Watch your portion sizes!
