Is it possible to have pouch spasms?



Recommended Posts

I ate some malt o meal yesterday for Breakfast. Since then I periodically get this weird pain below my heart about where my pouch is. Is lasts about 20-30 seconds but really makes me cringe. It causes me to almost ball up and cry. I'm about 6 weeks post op. Malt o meal is on my list of approved foods. Any suggestions other than call my doc? (of course i will if it continues but anything to ease my mind until then)

No. But i had an upper gi two weeks ago and they found some ulcers. Been taking nexium. This is totally different type of pain and just since the malt o meal

I had spasms in the beginning whenever I drank something cold. Very possible.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
