My surgery was 5/22 and I've been feeling great ever since. Last night as I was laying down to bed, my tummy hurt. Well, not exactly my tummy...more like my chest. Kind of like heartburn, but not really. Sort of a light pressure on my chest. I didn't sleep well last night because of it. Now today, my tummy feels kind of barfy. Not really sore, but more like sour stomach.

Here are the things I did yesterday that I think could have caused it:

1. I started taking a PPI yesterday (Pepcid), whereas I hadn't been taking one before.

2. I put Sriracha hot sauce in my Soup.

3. I was bending over adjusting cables in the back of our entertainment center, and maybe overdid my core muscles.

Any thoughts on which of these things (if any) could have caused this icky feeling? I am bummed today, because I've been feeling so good.

I've noticed that preop, I loved spicy food. Postop, I can barely tolerate them. I get a indigestion feeling. Maybe it was the hot sauce. Good luck, hopefully you'll feel better soon!

Turns out it was a pulled muscle in my stomach. I bought a back brace and it's helping a lot. So did the vicodin I took last night leftover from my surgery! haha

Sounds like all of the above could have done it but I would take it easy for a few days and if it doesn't get better always call your doctor

Hate to tell you but it's normal. The nauseousness comes and goes for the first couple of weeks. It gets better. Hang in there!

Hope you feel better soon! Yay for pain killers, LOL
