Stomach aches after eating

Good Morning everyone!

I have a question for you all. I get stomach aches after I eat, almost every time. Is this normal? I did have a bout of pneumonia about a week after surgery and I was loaded with antibiotics. I thought I might need to eat some yogurt to get the normal bacterial flora back into my gut.

Thanks for the help!

I get stomach aches only if I eat too fast... (which for me is a learning tool) We really have to eat as if we have a baby spoon and chew slowly from there.

I don't know your case in particular but this is what has happened to me.

I kind of get an uncomfortable tummy ache after eating almost every time. I just figured my tummy needed time to catch up. My doctor said it was nothing, and it does seem to get a little better over time, so hopefully it will go away all together someday!! Good luck, and I hope you feel better soon.

i have that too,not only after the meal but during the meal too.

it takes out all the joy when eating. i hope it goes away soon.....

My stomach reacts differently when I try a new food - it gurgles like crazy. It only aches if I eat too fast or too much. If I put 2 oz of something on my plate, I feel like I need to finish it, and really, I need to stop when I start getting that full feeling. One or two more bites is enough to make me miserable.

I did also get a sick tummy after taking some pain meds for my back during the first week after surgery. I think my stomach just wasn't ready for meds. I am now able to take a lower dose if needed.
