Pain When Food Hits Stomach



Recommended Posts

I'm doing much better than I was but still have this pain/uncomfortable feeling when food hits my stomach. Once it is past that entry it is fine. Is this normal and will it get better?

I'm not sure a what point you are having this problem...are you still on pureed foods? You may want to speak with your doctor to make sure everything is ok...

I would double-check with the doctor. Small bites and chewing thoroughly? Even on soft foods, those are the two things that cause pain and discomfort with me.

I had a hiatal hernia repair that really contributed to my discomfort. Did you have one? Also, I had to get an eat slower app on my Iphone to help eat slower. I recently learned there will be foods I can't tolerate since sleeved. That is chicken for me! A few seconds after it passes through , it get really angry and goes to war, making it super uncomfortable and painful at times. I would keep a diary of foods and write notes on how you feel with each food. I had to restart liquids for a few days and reintroduce some foods. If your really having a hard time with eating, call your doctor. S/he may offer some solutions or run tests.

Good luck!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
