I are a small amount if chicken salad at noon.. tummy hurts a little. What do y'all take for that?

I recommend slowly walking for a while. It should straighten your organs and help reduce the pain sharply. It's not much, but I don't think the pain can be eliminated entirely.

When my tummy aches I tell it to shut up! I have a great inner dialogue going on all day with myself. Sorry I wasn't much help.

I take a sip of Mylanta, did not ask md, but it sure helped.

I would definitely check your handbook if given one or contact your surgeon before taking any OTC meds I know after RNY you can't take pepto bysmal so be careful!

I drown my aches with Water, I flush away the ache, seems to work for me..although, this past Sunday evening, I thought I was gonna die..The grandkids were over, and they had beef dogs w/ mac & cheese. I ate TWO piece of dog, 20 minutes later, I was like-->WHAT THE HELL????... my stomach hurt so bad, that my neck and right arm hurt also?????..I downed a 1/2 bottle of water, it took an hour for that stabbing pain to settle down enough to give me a bit of relief...NOTE TO SELF...walk away from the beef/hot dogs..go figure????

What you described Dee is what I get almost every time I eat . 15 to 20 min after I eat I get that belly ach and I have it for 30 to 45 mins . I am 6 months out does anyone know why? Is it what I am eating? Or eating to much ? I don't think to much but who knows.

Seriously Lori if that kind of pain is there when ever u eat..u may have a intestine/bowel kink they r very common.. havw that chec:k 'd rigbt away..dont wait!!!

I'm sorry I shouldn't have said every time I eat .but a lot of the time I thought it might be choosing the wrong things I don't have any problems with soup. I can't eat grilled chicken salad with dressing I just had my 6 month check up .

Dee, my husband is a yr out and yes make sure you are chewing very fine before swallowing. . Sounds like you get some food stuck
