I'm 2 months out.

I have pain under my rib cage every time I eat or drink something.

Anyone have any advice? Makes me a bit nervous is all

Is it right under your sternum? That's where mine is. The surgeon said that's where the top of the stomach is and it hurts because that's where the food is entering the stomach and for some reason it's sensitive. For me, I had a hiatal hernia repair done there while he was doing my stomach. I figured that what was why but maybe not. But it does often hurt when I swallow food or drink.

Mine hurts in the same spot, so it's normal? I was getting scared

I too have pain at the top of the sternum aside from the pain that happened tonight.

Yes, that's right where it is for me. I guess if a bunch of us have it, maybe we're all sensitive.

*phew* I was getting a bit scared about that

Good day,

My doctor told me when you feel pain like that. It's because you are over eating.

It's strange, for me it can happen even after one bite. I think I'm gonna go back to basics and start with liquids again
