Is this pain common?

I'm 9 weeks out on Thursday, and today especially, but other days on and off I will eat something and as it seems to hit my pouch I feel a wave of pain...then it goes away ****il I take another bite). Sometimes it happens when I drink too, but more when I eat. Have I maybe just aggrevated it with something? Everything stays down fine, nothing getting stuck or that, just a real intense pain for a few second right after swollowing. Just wondered if anyone had some insight. I'm going to eat some softer foods/liquids and see if it lessens. Kim

No pain is common. You may be starting a stricture. Call the doc. kp

A closing of the stoma/pouch. If it is they scope you and dialte the stricture. Sounds ugly but it is harmless fun and very quick. Call the doc. kp

Hi Kim, Sounds like a stircture to me. Call Wanda or Annette A.S.A.P. Do you need the number? God bless you, Annette

Thanks Annette. Yes, would you please give me Wanda's/Annette's number? Should I call now or wait and see if it get worse? It seems sometimes it's worse than others when I eat.... last night was not as bad as yesterday at lunch... (I'm always worried about being a hypochondriac!) Thanks! Kim

Hey Kim, This happens to me just about everyday. Especially first thing in the morning. Or if I wait too long between eating or drinking. Like if don't have anything to eat or drink say in a 4 hour period then the first thing I swollow will hurt REALLY bad but it goes a way fast. Are you resting too long between meals or drinks? That is what my case seems to be. Like my pouch rests too long. Hope this helps. Hugs, Di
