Pain after Eating

Hi all,

For the past few weeks I get a dull pain and very full feeling a few minutes after eating. I feel nauseous and a bit sick as well and always have a BM with these symptoms.

This passes after a little while.

I had these symptoms two years ago right before I was hospitalized with a blockage. At that time my symptoms got worse all of a sudden and I wound up in hospital.

I am really scared that this is happening again, especially since it was the beginning of April as well.

Anyone else feel this way??

I know how you feel, sorry you are going thru this. I dont have bm right away, wish I did maybe the pain wouldn't be there if it went thru. I feel bloated and backed up but had a scope saying I wasnt narrowed. So I am thinking you could have some narrowing or scar tissue, I would give your bowels a rest and stick to fluids, I did yesterday. Feel a bit better today. Blockages are NOT fun, my worst nightmares! I see you are on Cipro and Flaygl, they should be helping. Keep us posted.
 
Mike,

Where is your pain? I have been experiencing similar feelings. My pain is just below my rib cage in the center of my abdomen (stomach?). Maybe you have seen some of my recent posts, but I have been concerned of a blockage as well, especially after a violent episode of vomiting two weeks ago.

I hope that neither is anything too serious, but if you say you felt this way before, I would say to check with your doc. Please keep us posted.
 
Thanks for the advice Jetta. I will be doing liquids only for a few days.

Shady, yep center under rib cage.

I'll call the doc Monday.

I forgot to mention the belching and bloat as well??

yeah I got major bloat and gas pains and they hurt! Using one flagyl a day is helping that now... thank God.
