Major Indigestion Last Night

Hey guys, I am 2 weeks post op and have been doing great so far until last night. I was drinking a protein shake and thought I was going to vomit. My stomach hurt so bad and I was so bloated. I think it was indigestion for I started burping like crazy and had to just walk it off because it hurt to bad to sit. I am still really full feeling this morning. Anyone else experience this? PS. I did start my period last night and not sure if it was a mix of first day cramps plus indigestion. I know it's a crazy question but just curious...kinda scared to drink another protein shake at this time.

Yes, it is common, I had woken up with me being in serious pain between my chest, The Doc said it was Indigestion, My Hubby said OMG Kathy it was a bad case, cause I felt like I was having a heart attack. I also have found that an ulcer has formed near my new pouch. so it if continue's tell your doc. Goodluck Kathy

Crystal, I have not experienced that as of yet, but I do hope you feel better soon....If you feel it is lasting to long call your doctor and get checked up, just to be safe. Lori

Hi, I'm one week out. I had the bloating , but I drank too much at one time. Also I foundout I should use fat free milk, or water when I feel bloated to make the protein shake and drink very slowly, also walking did help.You should let the doctor know anyway, incase. Marcia

I am also two weeks out and I have bloating all the time evertime I put anything in my mouth. I haven't been able to start drinking the shakes I did one and it was yuck and have't pick one up yet I know I need to and maybe I will try 2% milk instead of 1% and try again. I burp alot to I think it is becasue we are drinking it to fast or something. Do you have a support group around you to go to. I have been going since before my surgery and it helps there are people there that can help alot becasue they have been there. I have one on the 11th and I can't wait it will be the first since my surgery and I have lots of questions. But hang in there like I am trying to I know we will get through this. And this time next year we will be wearing our swim suites and loving how we feel.
