it comes and goes but is super annoying. I'm 3 weeks post op from a mini bypass and seem to be tolerating food fine. But I get super tired after eating ( like could sleep at the table). And then have weird upper abdomen/ center rib cage pain. It's tender when I push it or take a deep breath and seems to happen at night ( wakes me up)

Will it get better. Is this normal ?

If you have pain after eating it sounds like you are eating too much. Try eating slower and stop before you get pain, normally you should have a satisfied feeling not pain or full.

Well. Yesterday I ate some pot roast and after like four hires just felt icky. Stopped. Took a bath. Felt better. Went to bed at 9. Woke up at 3 am with the weird tenderness and it's better now but still there.
