Is it possable to get a stricture/blockage at the Y connection?

I am 13 months post op and I was wondering if it is possable to get a stricture/blockage at the Y (where the common channel meets and is reattached to the small intestine)? I have noticed after eating meat like chicken, steak, pork... I take small bites and chew well. I can hear a "POP" like a cork being popped off a champaigne bottle, and it usually happens within a 1/2 hour after eating meat no pain, just the feeling and sound, I usually hear 3 or 4 differant poppings a few minutes apart, so Im guessing its the meat passing through, and it never happens any other time. Its always in the exact same spot on my tummy about 5 inches to the left of my belly button. If this is a beginning of a blockage, would they fix it durring my hernia repair, and how long would I be in the hospital? thanks in advance. open rny 4/24/03 >112# enjoying the ride!! :0)
