I am 13 months post-op and and in June I went in for another surgery to have my gallbladder removed. After that I was still having little episodes of pain that felt like pancreatitus. My pcp gave me some medications because she said it is actually acid causing the pain. I also have a little dull ache on my  left side after I eat certain things. When I had my GB taken out  by  my actual wls surgeon  he said i didn't appear to have any hernias. Well, yesterday I woke up feeling sore in my chest. I feel a little pain in both my chest and below  my  rib cage just about every time I swallow anything. I feel discomfort  with even drinking at bit of  water. Friday, i ate some stuff I probably shouldn't  have.
Today, I am going to not eat any solid foods, just liquids and soft food that is not spicy or acidy. My question is do you think my pouch is just irritaded because of bad food choices and it will subside if I baby it for a couple of days? Does anyone relate to any of this?

Note: I am currently taking antibiotics for the past 3 days for a UTI...

Sounds like it could be from an ulcer.  Ask your Dr. about getting a scope done to check for a possible ulcer.  An ulcer causing a gnawing, burning type of pain.

Best of luck to you.  I have had several ulcers and other complications as well.
