Ok so I am having a ruff day today... I don't know what is normal with this new body of mine...

I am having pain/discomfort when I am eating, well at this point, drinking. I'm 9 days post op and I am afraid it doesn't seem to be normal. I am going to talk to my dr tomorrow but I am just scared I have some kind of complication and will go back to the hospital.

I am trying to pay attention when the pain starts or what may cause it, I have different Proteins I take and still can't point to what may be the cause. I thought it was lactose, so I stopped having milk with my shake and still same issue...

The pain I get once I swallowed and liquid is gone down, it becomes kind of crampy - gassy pain.

Can you please tell me your experiences?

Thank you!

I would see what the doctor can offer. Hopefully you do not have a leak or anything like that. Are you drinking too fast? Perhaps it is the temperature of the drink? I know in the beginning I couldn't drink really cold things; had to be a bit more room temp.

Keep us informed on what you find out.

I'm 9 days post op and have the same thing a long with a bad pulling on my lower left side. I'm still on Clear liquids.

Did you see the doctor and did they offer any help? Again, I'm thinking it might be drinking too fast or the temperature of the liquid. Also, where is the pain located after swallowing?
