skierhj 1 Posted May 28, 2008 Ok, so I'm 6 days post-op and it's been pretty easy so far. I haven't taken any pain meds in a few days, the discomfort from the gas (that sucked) is pretty much gone, the diet has been easy to stick to because I don't feel like eating (though everytime I smell hot food my stomach growls), now tonight something not so pleasant. My surgeon said I could try cream of wheat pretty diluted, I took one bite and got massive pain in my stomach. It felt like I had been stabbed in the gut, I ended up coughing up some clearish liquid and my stomach pain has subsided a bit but, OWWWW! What the heck happened and why?

Lunabeane 2 Posted May 28, 2008 Wow...that must have been scary! I haven't had any episodes like that. I did have one experience where it felt like something was going to go wrong...but it only lasted for a second. I immediately went back to creamed soups...cause I'm a chicken.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Long2BFree 12 Posted May 28, 2008 Could the temp of the food been too hot or cold for your tummy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
