Pain After Drinking ANYTHING

I am 19 months post-op Lap RNY, and just about the most well-behaved post-op on the planet, no kidding. No alcohol ever, no sugar, no smoking. I dump easily, so no cheating.<br> Two days ago I started having pain after I drank anything- Propel, coffee, tea, water, soy milk, ANYTHING. I have timed it, since it is so annoying ;) I takes about 10-12 seconds for the pain to hit me. Even a small sip causes the pain. I would decribe it as a burning knot between the lower part of my breasts, just at the top of my rib cage (I think it is about where I would do compressions for CPR). It makes it hard to breath for a couple of seconds, then goes away.<br> I am not calling my doc's PA yet, just doing a wait-and-see for a day or two... plus I am having an endoscopic biospy on Wednesday (day after tomorrow) to rule out Celiac Sprue. So, if there is anything going on in there, they would see it. <br>Just wondering if anyone has felt this one before. It had thrown me off guard because I am so far out (19 months), and up until know I have been able to nearly gulp liquids, no problem.<br> Thanks for your help! -Shelli
