Issues after eating



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery November 5th and every time I eat. No matter what it is after the first bite my chest down to my stomach hurts! I chew my food very well. Just not sure if this is always gonna happen! Makes me never want to eat anything which is unhealthy

You could have a stricture? How long does it last? Do you get your solid Protein in if you are having this issue? Are fluids also causing this?

Try a warm drink 15 minutes before, then have moist food. If it persists I would call the surgeon's office and get checked out. Good luck.

I just went to the doctor even though I had my surgery in Mexico and they are checking my blood and have me scheduled for a ultrasound next week! And when I cough or sneeze there is a horrible pain under my ribs on my left side. It almost takes me to the ground when I cough or sneeze. I’m concerned!

I wonder if you're having stomach spasms. Sometimes I get this too, but probably not as often as you. I end up with terrible nerve pain under my left ribs if they come on too suddenly, but then when I take my Levsin the pain goes away. I hope you get some answers from your doc. Keep us updated!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
