Horrible Stomach Acid



Recommended Posts

I have had such horrible stomach acid, they r doing a variety of tests most recently an ultersound. I am on a couple of different acid pills.

I have such horrible pains that start right by my breast bone and it stings, I can't breath and I get horrible cold sweats.

Has anyone else has these symptoms?

I d heard strictures can cause that. I hope that isn't it. Has your doctor looked into that? I truly hope they figure it out quickly for you and you are feeling better very soon!

Not sure how far out you are from surgery, but I had very bad stomach acid for awhile after surgery. I have GERD so they said the stomach acid could increase for awhile after surgery. I am 11 weeks out and the excess acid is gone. I am still on prevacid though.

What you are describing sounds like you may be eating or drinking too fast or possibly too much. I got alot of severe pain just underneath my breast bone whenever I ate or drank too much, too fast or ate and drank at the same time. I would also get very nauseous and had cold sweats. I also vommitted a couple of times. It is better now since I learned to never eat and drink at the same time and ate/drank slowly.

Hope you're feeling better soon!

Hey guys thank so much for your respond! After the results came back I was told that I have gull bladder stones! I will be having surgery to get that removed!

My doctor told me this can happen after a person loses alot of weight! I am about 6.5 months out from my surgery! If anyone else has these pains my suggestion would be to get check out just in case before it gets worse!

It's not the same thing... He didn't relate them however it was the only way I could describe my pain until we figured out what was going on.

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
