I will be 5 months post-op I'm just a few days and I have been doing pretty well up until the last few days. I have been feeling very noticable stabbing pain in the lower left side just under my ribcage after I eat. I don't get it a of the time and have had it with different foods at different times of the day but mainly at night. Does anyone know if this another normal for bariatric life or do I need to be concerned?

Thank you Luce587! That really helps a lot to know I am not feeling this by myself!

I feel like you are trolling more than helping given this last post of yours. You answered one of my questions, and I don't recall displaying your name and saying you were offensive until now. You posting this is just plain taking things out of context, and you need not respond on my posts if you can't stick to the topic. I am free to ask things without people like you patronizing me.

Yes Kimberg I am eating chicken 11 days out and yes it is on my plan. I just asked a few simple questions and it seems they cant be answered so I think I will take the post down...

Jkhaj I am aware of the drinking rule but sometimes things need a small push. lets not be over-dramatic about a mini-sip of water between bites. I also said I moistened it well if you read my post...

No Kate salad as in canned chicken, powdered seasonings, light mayo, and very well smashed up soft boiled eggs.

I am 11 days post op and I ate about 1 tablespoon of a moist but bland chicken salad yesterday and had a weird experience. I am wondering if what I felt was normal. It felt like a small pipe cleaner going down, I could feel the fibers in the back of my esophagus. I had to take micro-sips of water to push it down and then I got some pain near my left shoulder under my neck, it went away after awhile but still, how very weird. Is this normal? Will these feelings subside? Will I ever be able to eat more than a tablespoon of food?
