5 months out. Stomach spasms

I've been doing really good but in the last week I can't seem to tolerate any food. I keep getting these stomach spasms. At times there really painful. Anyone experience this?

No, I don't have a gallbladder, and I haven't eaten anything different. :)

Sorry to hear this Mrs Gina. I have not had my surgery yet so I am no help. My suggestion would be to refer to the FAQS Frequently Asked Questions or call your surgeons office.

Maybe a stomach bug?

I started getting stomach spasms a year ago, about two years after surgery. I don't attribute them to the surgery. I was afraid it was diverticulitis or something more serious, luckily it's not. Now I know the symptoms and when my tummy starts feeling a certain way, I start taking my medication. I did go to the doctor and get something to take. One pill every four hours, usually one or two and I'm fine. There is no rhyme or reason with this either, it's not like it happens when I eat certain food, but it is always after I eat, and I'm pretty sure, never the same food. I'll just start getting a bloated feeling. The first time, I had no idea, and it went on for three or four days, sometimes pretty severe pain.....I finally decided before the weekend, I should do something. I didn't want to risk ending up in the ER. Anyway.....very strange!

I get stomach spasm's after I take Tylenol with cod.....It really sucks too. Hope it's just the stomach bug...... :P
