Severe stomach pain /spasms

[healthyme0710 0]

I am one week post op and feel like a fool having to ask this question. I ate a few forkfuls of chicken salad. I immediately developed abdominal pain and severe spasms with right shoulder and chest pain. I know I ate too fast and thought to drink sips of Water. After drinking the water and laying down for an hour the pain was relieved. I still feel really full and will not be doing this again. Although I am feeling better I am worried that I possibly caused damage to the lapbad or stitches from the severe spasms. Has anyone else had this happen ?

I'm going to say that you probably didn't damage anything if the pain has subsided.

Are you on any kind of post-op diet? For 2 weeks after, I wasn't allowed anything but Soups, ensures, stuff like that.

If you do eat- just remember to chew, chew, chew!!

Good luck!

Thanks for your help. I was alittle confused with the post -op diet. I did resume a liquid diet and feel better. However, I was very concerned with possibly doing damage to the band or my stomach. I just needed to hear someone else to reassure me I did not do permanent damage. Thanks so much for your help.
