Pain

[ASHMHB 1]

Hey guys, I’m 4 weeks post op for gastric bypass and everything I eat gives me the worst stomach pains. I’m doing my mushy foods, i was thinking of seeing my doctor soon but I just wanted to know if this is normal for any else? I know I’m going to be told it’s still quite soon but it’s at a point where the idea of eating is just putting me off if it’s going to cause pain. I do eat slowly and I stop when I am full.
I’ve been feeling quite nauseous but not as often.

I took a lot of gasX, Dramamine (25mg meclizine) & a few pain pills for the 1st 2-3 months. And regretted even having the surgery. My daughter said I made it look so easy. I was just hiding it.

What mushy foods are you eating?

Try stopping before you actually feel full. If I go until I feel full, i'll have to vomit. But yes, i've had stomach pains pretty much constantly since surgery 4 weeks ago.

Me too, ever since I started puréed foods.

I bought nausea bands for my wrist for nausea. They help somewhat until I take them off.

Maybe try cutting what you’re eating in half and just eat more frequently

I found out that I have developed gallstones so that is the most likely cause of my constant pain.
