Issues after eating



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery November 5th and every time I eat. No matter what it is after the first bite my chest down to my stomach hurts! I chew my food very well. Just not sure if this is always gonna happen! Makes me never want to eat anything which is unhealthy

You could have a stricture? How long does it last? Do you get your solid Protein in if you are having this issue? Are fluids also causing this?

Try a warm drink 15 minutes before, then have moist food. If it persists I would call the surgeon's office and get checked out. Good luck.

I just went to the doctor even though I had my surgery in Mexico and they are checking my blood and have me scheduled for a ultrasound next week! And when I cough or sneeze there is a horrible pain under my ribs on my left side. It almost takes me to the ground when I cough or sneeze. I’m concerned!

I wonder if you're having stomach spasms. Sometimes I get this too, but probably not as often as you. I end up with terrible nerve pain under my left ribs if they come on too suddenly, but then when I take my Levsin the pain goes away. I hope you get some answers from your doc. Keep us updated!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
