So I've noticed that sometime when I eat my back starts to hurt then I start feeling pressure on my chest. It's happened quiet a few times. I dont know if it's cause I'm eating to fast and that is what's causing the pain and uncomfortable feeling. I was sleeved on 9/13/12

Also today I ate a peach with out the skin, nut said I could have it... So I was eating it then I got that pain again with a lot of pressure on my chest then I felt like I had to throw up, ran to the bathroom and it was just foamy stuff.. what was that? Should I be worried,call the surgeon, or is this normal?

Thanks

I would call doc, sounds Luke it could be gallbladder.

**like. Not Luke, sorry

Oh I hope not. I'll call them in the morning thank you.

You're fine. What you did is called sliming. Do a search on this site for it. It happens when you eat too quickly, take bites that are too large or don't chew enough.

I had it happen to me once after eating a peach, too. Went back to the old habit of inhaling my food and whoosh! The foam started flowing. Not an experience I wanted again and that re-enforced the need to slow down.

You have to remember, the stomach is th mechanical part of digestion. It churns food around with the stomach acids to prepare it to enter the intestines. 85% of it was just recently removed. The staple line hasn't even fully healed, yet. Take it slower that you think ... don't push it. Help out the mechanical part by chewing well.

Omg! I've heard about the sliming just didn't think that was it. Thanks. I'm going to research. But yes I kind of knew.I was.eating a.bit to fast. Thanks.
