Feeling too full, pressure on stomach after litle amount



Recommended Posts

I have started solids and so far it is going well. However, for the past 2 days I feel a strong pressure in my stomach and feel very full after half the amount I was having a few days before. I was able to eat 4 onces of blended food but now I feel too full after half of it. I was able to have a full egg and now I feel the pressure and discomfort after half of it.

Did any one experienced the same? I am wondering if i have undigested food taking room in my stomach :( . I guess the stomach will not get smaller, right? :blink:

Constipated?

Also, you are entering the time where strictures will develop, according to my doctor's literature.

Do you have any pain when you push on your stomach?

Does your stomach feel hard?!? Bloated? - this could be a sign of Constipation. A mild stool softener may be enough to move things along. That full feeling might be gas too. Trying a Gas-X strip might be in order.

I would suggest contacting your surgeons office if you continue to have pains.

Good luck :)

Thanks for the answers. I decided to give it a try and too a laxative and 2 gasex. It worked wonders. :D I had no idea that gas and Constipation could make you feel like that.

Thanks

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
