Hi Everyone, I hope this note finds you all well and happy. I have a question about eating and burping and just not feeling good. I am fine usually but sometimes if I eat pea soup or if I am drinking my protein drink in the morning and taking pills I get sick. Burping pain in chest which goes away when I burp but then comes back its lasts about 20 min. Do you think I am eating to fast? Can anyone tell me how long between bites? Thanks And hugs Gail

It could be that you are eating too fast.Are you chewing everything really well and taking small bites??

If this continues you should call your doctor. Could be a stricture. Don't wait too long.

Hi Connie,
Last night I did good with dinner took small bites and much slower. If you have a stricture shouldn't it happen every time you eat? Hugs GAil

As for the strictures....it depends on what you are eating and how fast. In the begining they don't hurt every time if you are eating right.
You are probably just experiencing a touchy pouch. After a while it will get better. I had problems with eggs and a few other things. I couldn't eat those for almost a year.

Good luck...let us know how you are doing.

It looks to me like you are only a little over a month from your surgery. The Pea Soup is
probably to thick or too much fat content in it that might be causing the gas buildup. If
it does not happen all the time I would think that it is what you are eating & not timing
of how you chew. With pills you might need to cut them in half for awhile & mabe put
more water in your shake. Are you making the shakes with water or milk? If milk you
are adding fat & sugar that could be the problem. It also may be what we used to call foamies in the early days & that was usally caused by eating too fast or not soft enough
food. Hope this helps you somewhat!!

Hi Marilyn,
Thanks for the advice, I do make my shakes with milk but I didn't have a problem until yesterday. I think what might have happened is I drank it to fast and then took this large pill because it happend right away. Then the soup was very thick so I will ax that for now. Its just so hard to get everything in. protein and water quota's. But if it happens again I will try the water with the shakes. Do you really have to wait 3 min. between bites???? Thanks again Hugs Gail
