Lebim 381 Posted July 5, 2012 So I ate my dinner, waited 30mins to drink my Water and now I have this horrible pain in the center of my chest that goes down to my sternum along with on and off nausea... is this dumping from drinking too soon or something else? I've never had to wait more than 30mins before. Really doesn't feel good, almost like terrible gas pain but in my chest - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgerversary: 6/11/12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nomorefat 74 Posted July 5, 2012 Drink something hot, take gas x and walk around the house as much as you can. Tonight I ate something and within 2 minutes was off to the bathroom dry heaving, found that I must have gotten a pocket of gas somewhere. I could tell because it felt like the gas I had in the first 2 weeks and I drank some coffee, took some gas x and started burping the gas out. It took me 2 hours to get rid of it, but I finally did. At first I thought I was dumping from a canned mushroom, only to figure out it was gas, and to be honest not real fun. Best of luck getting rid of it, just telling you what works for me.. 1 DLCoggin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nomorefat 74 Posted July 5, 2012 I spoke to someone else who had the same issue with a mushroom, could have been dumping too for me, all I know is it was not a good night. It was not the first and will not be the last, but still worth it !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it's upsetting your pouch vomit it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chaotica 96 Posted July 6, 2012 Stuck food sucks so bad! It seems there are just some things that don't work well with our pouches. I do chicken great! But pork, no matter how well I chew or how little I eat, makes me sick! It seems to work pretty fast when something gets stuck, I don't give it time I just go right upstairs and get rid of it. Ahhh the new pouch and it's pissy ways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't have pork for the same reason and god forbid I eat chicken that's too dry . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CherylS 7 Posted July 6, 2012 I always keep gasx with me.. Your experience sounds like my Brussels sprout incident. I couldnt eat at all for 24 hours. After that every new food I try is in very small amounts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
