Hunger pains?

I can't tell what the pain that comes in waves are. It feels like, before my surgery starving pains, like if I didn't eat for the whole day and my stomach would growl and hurt and I'd be so hungry! This time, my stomach doesn't growl. I don't know if I should be worried of this pain or not. It brings a slight nausea feeling with it each time.

I've been having those pains too. My surgery was on Monday. I don't think it is hunger...although it does feel like that sometimes. I think I am having stomach spasms. My good friend (who had the surgery a year ago) said her doctor told her that it is part of the healing process for the stomach. Apparently when the stomach is injured, spasming can result. Hope this helps. If you find out anything about it let me know! Good luck!

I have found that keeping a heating pad on my tummy helps a lot. I have not been concerned about it except that I worry that I will continue to be hungry all the time and gain weight

I had my surgery on Monday too. I found I get it and I eat a bit then I have a new pain. But it goes away.
