Does the pain ever go away?

[Tejee 32]

I'm exactly 2 months post op today. (YAY!) But I still get pain whenever I eat... it's not bad like when I was first out of surgery but I still have to prepare myself to feel heavy and uncomfortable for a good hour afterwards.... does this feeling ever go away? Any advice would help!

Try chewing really really well (until mush) and eat slightly less to see if it helps!

Im 11 weeks post-op and still get pain. I also had i hiatal hernia repair done at the same time, which shld not make a diff according to my NUT. However, i do notice that if i eat or drink to fast, or if i do not puree my food while its in my mouth, it will hurt. Some foods jst dnt digest well in my stomach and no matter what i do, my stomach rejects it, for example eggs prepared diff ways or anything fried or sauteed in any type of grease. So, I jst look at it as giving my body at least 6-8mos to heal all the way. My NUT said that if this pain persist after i hve eaten properly or if I am not meeting my nutritional goals of Protein, liquids and cals, then i need to make an appt with my surgeon.

I get the pain still sometimes, it's usually if I eat or drink to fast. I just chew more and it helps a lot. Some days I won't have any at all but there are days (like yesterday) where I felt bloated and pain for hours but I had only 1/4 cup of food before it happened.
