Question:
Severe pain after eating vegetables & chicken.

I fixed frozen vegetables and chicken sauteed with sesame seed oil and soy sauce on rice for dinner and now 3 hours later, I am in severe pain! I have had pain after eating before, but it usually goes away in an hour. I am beginning to worry. I have been eating Tums like crazy and no relief! HELP!!!!! I have never had problems with rice before- could it have been the oil? -or is something wrong with my pouch? HELP!!!!    — [Anonymous] (posted on January 27, 2001)

You don't say how far post op you are, but for what it's worth, I am 5 months post op and sometimes I can eat a bit of rice with no problem and other times it really hurts. Last time I ate some, it had soy sauce and a bit of sesame oil in it along with some very well cooked broccoli and carrots and I was quite uncomfortable. I will add that I use soy sauce and sesame oil on meat with no problem. So...I am not sure, but my guess is that it is the rice. --Libby
