Ok...so I have been under A LOT of stress lately. Maybe my number 1 problem, but I need to know why everything I eat lately feels like I am trying to swallow a sword? OMG---so PAINFUL!!!! Drinks are somewhat ok, but I still have the mid-chest pain and forget eating anything with substance to it. I am 14 months out, what is going on?? YIKES!!!!!

No foamies or vomiting (haven't vomited since surgery), but excessive hiccups and eat Tums and Gas X like candy!!!

Possible ulcer? I had pain like that early on and I had an ulcer. I'm so sorry for your pain. Good luck. Linda

huum, could be an ulcer. You need to call the doc. if he prescribes carafate or prevacid and you start to feel better you will know why! Acid can cause duodenal ulcers. blessings, Tami

It does sound like an ulcer, which these days can be treated with anti biotics. Best see you local dr to get it sorted out. Hope it heals quickly , what ever it is. hugs, Helen
