Back pain after eating?
When I saw my NUT today she thought it was probably gas (surgery 11/13/12) really, still so much gas pain? It is during/following eating something. I'm thinking it is my signal that I have eaten too fast (working on that!) or too much. I've had no other signs of a negative full feeling, no sick feelings at all. I been careful with measuring, but maybe need to try less? I feel satisfied but not hungry after eating, although the back pain does start after a few bites. I do take gas-x afterwards, but it doesn't seem to be that helpful.
Any thoughts?
Thanks! Ellyn
I have had that pain (right side - below shoulder blade) - since surgery 12 weeks ago. Hurts more after eating no matter how little I eat. I have mentioned it to my pcp and my surgeon - no one seems to be concerned but it sure is annoying to me. I use a heating pad when it is really bad - gives some relief. I go back for my three month check up after the first of the year - if I still have the pain - I'm going to ask the surgeon to investigate the cause. Like you I have tried slowing down, eating less, etc. and I will admit - some days the pain is worse than others. Good luck - hope it subsides for you.
