gohelpyourself 377 Posted February 14, 2014 If I take to big of a drink it hurts but then I can actually feel it draining into my stomach. I KNOW!!!! It's like you can actually FEEL digestion occurring. Eeek 1 shazbah68 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jpov821 79 Posted February 14, 2014 Yeah I get that too. Very strange feeling but I'm starting to get used to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gohelpyourself 377 Posted February 14, 2014 I had my post op appointment on Tuesday. The P.A said those spasms and those feeling eventually resolve once your stomach realizes it can do the same job digesting with 80% of its power. I look forward to that day. Other thing I dislike is the feeling I have to belch and it just seems to get trapped up in my esophagus along with the embarrassing gurgling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After anything going in. And I swear I can sometimes hear her stomach across the entire room. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuperFab 689 Posted February 14, 2014 great! LOL Other problem I have had since surgery is insomnia. I am frikken exhausted and can't sleep. Have no idea WTH is up with that. I usually fall asleep around 430am and my son wakes me up bright and early at 730. Its been a barrel of fun lemme tell you. Lots and lots of threads about it. My bud, indecision, is at goal. Gets like 4 hrs of sleep. Says he can't sleep past 4am. That is something I hope like heck to dodge as I've already got severe sleep apnea and feel tired constantly.

vanceheather5 69 Posted February 14, 2014 I have no problem sleeping! Thank God! But I am wondering if any of u are having bowel movements? I haven't had one since Sunday. And so I have just contributed it to not having any roughage to digest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaddyMarie 291 Posted February 14, 2014 Constipation is normal. Tell your doctor and they will suggest a laxitive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuperFab 689 Posted February 14, 2014 Drink plenty of Water to help relieve Constipation I'm drinking a TON of water and it doesn't help me. I have to take 2 stool softeners a day and I MIGHT, if I'm lucky, go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
