Molly3 495 Posted September 17, 2013 Hi all, I'm 3 1/2 months out & I've been having a weird feeling in my stomach. It's tender and almost like an ache. It's hard to explain it & I'm getting a little freaked out. I can't get ahold of my surgeon & I'm not too sure on what to do? Anyone else have issues this far out & have experienced the same? I am also still very bloated, not too sure what's going on there either! Thank you, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soocalchic 1,087 Posted September 17, 2013 Acid? Indigestion I'm sure you're eating different foods now. that can be the culprit new tummies sometimes don't do as well when you're reintroducing foods. Stick to one at a time.. I couldn't eat eggs initially 1 Molly3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chittick24 52 Posted September 17, 2013 I had this reaction initially with milk. Also acid can be a tricky thing and can act different for everyone. Are you takin an antacid? 1 Molly3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wags 549 Posted September 17, 2013 Hi Molly, where exactly is the ache and tenderness located? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Molly3 495 Posted September 17, 2013 Thanks ladies! Chittick, I take 2 40mg of Prilosec a day. It doesn't feel like acid but, very well could be. Soocal, I still have that swallowing thing too. It's like my swallowing isn't smooth!? Dr. said, it's most likely nothing...SIGH. Wags, it's below my breast bone & down a little. Not really a burning feeling just tender & a little sore.

Wags 549 Posted September 17, 2013 Do you have your gallbladder? The pain doesn't sound typical for that, but it does radiate to that spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's really obvious when I forget to take my 2nd dose of Prilosec! Did you ever feel like it was rough or chunky? Sorry, gross! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
