Question:
Anyone experienced back pain after just a few bites?

I am 3 wks post op and will call my Dr tomorrow but curious if anyone else has experienced severe back pain after taking just a few bites of food. This pain is a stabbing pain to the left of the spine. Makes it hard to breathe and subsides after about 5 to 8 minutes and is better after drinking a little water. Any comments will be appreciated.    — Barbara S. (posted on May 11, 2003)

Yeah I have - try eating slower and smaller bites (if you aren't already)...it gets better with time.
