I had a VSG on September 1. My mother-in-law had Christmas brunch this morning. I had a cup of coffee with a small amount of vanilla Premier Protein in it on our 20 minute drive to her house. We didn't eat right away so there was at least 30 minutes between drinking coffee and eating. I ate a very small piece of quiche and a slice of ham. The ham was thick but I cut it into small pieces and chewed them (I thought) well. Usually if I eat too much or too fast I am in pain pretty quickly. Today, however, about an hour and a half after eating, I started having excruciating stomach pain that was shooting through to my back and I was nauseated. I "vomited" foam for a while. Now, almost 5 hours later I am still nauseated and in pain. I have rotated a heating pad from my stomach and back. Does anyone have any suggestions that might help? I am miserable. BTW, I had my gallbladder removed 8 years ago.

I have no idea what the problem might be, but I'd recommend calling your doctor or visiting an urgent care clinic just to make sure.

Walk, walk, walk. It could have been anything, really. I had this experience randomly for about 18 months. If you can force a burp, it helps. GasX was my BFF. But really, walk. Up steps is best.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
