Help! Syomach ache for two weeks now



Recommended Posts

Be had a stomach ache for two weeks now. I'm 7 weeks post op. I've also had diarrhea it so uncomfortable I cant take it anymore. My eating habits are the same. No fats no carbs. Water and Protein give me the same ache as eating and I know it's not. Leak because I don't have a fever or soreness it's a cramp and a need to go to the bathroom. Any suggestions ?

Are you taking any liquid antacid? My doctor Rxd it for 3x a day post op and whenever I have tummy ache I take a swig, very quick relief

Yes I've been taking Pepcid every morning with my Vitamins, just as the surgeon suggested.

Pepcid is a pill. I took that also. What I ALSO took was a liquid antacid. This is what provides the quick relief. I got a generic brand of Maalox. Yucky to drink but works great.

Are you keeping a food log to see if there is something that could be setting it off? Your habits may be the same but it doesn't mean that your new tummy is very accepting of certain things anymore. Also, lactose intolerance is uncovered a good bit after surgery. (Just throwing out ideas)
