Abdominal pain

Since Friday morning (after I ate) I've had abdominal pain, close to my belly button. Now every time I eat, I start hurting. It's not terrible pain but it's there. Could it be that food is stuck in my pouch? Has anyone experienced this? Or does anyone have any idea what it could be? Help!

It seems your belly button is far too low for it to be stuck food in your pouch. Could it perhaps be constipation? Have you had any diet changes recently that would be causing you a lot of gas? I get random abdominal pains that last for days sometimes too, and it's usually gas and constipation for me. A day or two of smooth move tea and collace and a LOT of Water clears it right up.

Hope you get this figured out and that all is well. :)

I have been more gassy. I had bowel movement yesterday after suppository. Where do I get smooth move tea? Is your pain worse after you eat?

Yep that pain for me is gas pain and constipation.. It's lasted weeks for me and is very frustrating never mind uncomfortable.. Now I make sure I get all my water in , take a fiber powder 3 times a day in my water and yogurt and take duralax every night .. It's getting a little better now
