Do I have Obstruction of the opening of the stoma?

I have this horrible pain/burning in the back of my throat. It felt like heartburn, but after chewing 2 TUMS and then trying 3 teaspoons of Pepto Bismal, I still feel really bad! I'm 5 1/2 years post op and I don't have a gallbladder. I had surgery on June 26, 2007 to fix my small bowel (it was herniated into an opening). I feel that if I could throw up I would feel better. The pain also feels like I have a big ball of food stuck in the back of my throat.
