Domawa 17 Posted November 14, 2014 Something new started for me about a week ago. Whenever I drink Or eat anything, after I swallow about 15-30 seconds later I get a cramping feeling under my lower left rib. It feels to me like the food or drink sits at the top of my stomach and as it dribbles into the stomach, the cramping eases. It is very uncomfortable. It has gotten worse as the week has gone by. I plan to call dr today, but wondered if anyone else has had this experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeagleLover 1,020 Posted November 14, 2014 It could be eating or drinking too fast and not having your bites small enough or not chewing well enough. You do have to pace yourself. If it's not that, I suggest you call your surgeon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Domawa 17 Posted November 14, 2014 Called dr. Was told to wear Spanx (I guess to support the area), drink with straw and go back on liquids for the weekend. If not better on Monday, I will go in for a swallow study. Praying it gets better on its own. I really don't want more surgery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
