stomach cramps

[NanaPat 12]

Banded on Aug 29,2013 just had my 3rd fill and I have been experiencing cramps in my stomach area after eating or drinking any thing. It comes in waves, I have to spit out food at every meal. Still trying to SLOW down... is the cramping a normal stuck problem or something I should worry about?

It's hard to say. I have not experienced that.

I was told to always call my surgeon's office if I have trouble after a fill.

Good idea to sloooooow down. When you get a fill do you stick to liquids, then move to mushies, then soft food before going back to regular food? If not, you may want to do that.

And call your surgeon's office in the morning just to be on the safe side.

Call your surgeon, tell him about the pain and spitting up food, and let him decide.

Pain is never normal.

Best wishes.

Depends on when your fill was. If it was on Friday, it may be that you are swollen and should be on liquids. If it was earlier than that, you may be a little too tight! I agree, you should call your surgeon's office this morning. best wishes, Karen..aka.kll724
