3 months out questions

[hopefulmom76 41]

My new stomach has been going crazy the past two days! It's like gas is constantly trapped and I belch all the time. It was not like this before AT ALL! Could it be reflux, a leak, gallstones? It makes me not want to eat because then it goes nuts sounding. I'm not really uncomfortable besides the belching all the time. Opinions?

@@hopefulmom76most common cause of narrowing of the esophagus, or stricture, is scarring of the esophagus from reflux of stomach acid occurring in patients with heartburn. Patients with a narrowed portion of the esophagus often have trouble swallowing; food feels like it is “stuck” in the chest region, causing discomfort or pain.

I am also three months out and experiencing issues with eating. I can't eat or drink anything without pain in my chest. Makes me not want to eat and I feel hungry all the time so I forced myself to eat a little tuna and spinach salad and it went straight through me.

Slow down your eating, chew more, and take Gas-X. I'm also three months out and have really noisy sounds in my pouch. It's almost always air and Gas-X takes it right away. If it were any of those things you're worried about, there would be PAIN! If you're truly concerned, of course, seek medical advice.

I have to drink a few sips of Water before I start eating. I feel like this dislodges the gas that has accumulated in my tummy and I burp it out quite easily. Then when it's time to eat, I have no noisy gas issues.
