I have pain in my belly around my belly button. It burns and sometimes I have to put a cold washcloth on it to help it feel better. I do not have acid reflux or burning in my chest. I thought it was just normal heartburn but when my husband saw me holding my belly he said heartburn is in the chest.
I had a scope a couple weeks ago. He said I may have a fistula at the staple line.
I didnt mention this pain to him.
Anyone have this?

It sounds to me like you have adhesions in there!  The pain in central around the belly button and worsens (feels like pulling and tightening as well as burning) after eating.  There are no tests for adhesions, you just have to go in and have them taken apart.  I've already been through this twice in a matter of almost a year.  It's horrible, but nothing can be done about them.  The worst part is that they get worse and worse after each surgery.  For me, I just learn how to deal with the pain.

i hope you feel better!
