Hello everybody. I am new here.mplease if you have no had surgery do not read below as it may scare you.

I had Part of my small bowel removed and a partial stomach removal done back in 2004. Over the past 5 or so years the area of where my intestines are, have been hurting after eating. Everything i eat hurts. I have changed my diet lots of times and am on a low carb high fat diet atm. It has helped with all the bloating I had (seriously looked like I was 6 months pregnant and the pain omg the pain was vicious.) I am 12 years on almost 13 from the surgery and as I stated any meal small or large I get such pain near my naval. I have had every test done, endoscopy, colonoscopy, barium meals etc and they have found nothing wrong. I just had a very small bowl of whole fate greek yogurt (80 grams) with hemp seeds, coconut oil and kefir and i feel pain there and nausea. I could eat a small plate of spinach and the same thing happens. Literally anything I eat makes it hurt there and nauseous with heart palpitations and extreme tiredness, etc. Has anyone suffered anything like this? The doctors have nothing for me and tell me "probably adhesions." Problem is I generally don't have pains until I eat, sometimes a burning feeling around naval if stomachs empty.

Thanks for your time. Take care.

Hi. I am sorry for the pain you are going through. Everyone is a little different but my understanding is a lot of people with crohns have a hard time with seeds. Keep pushing until you get some answers.
 
I should add that if i don't get enough sleep I wake up in a ton of pain that subsides after 5-10 minutes but remains sore during the morning. Anyone have any clue what could be going on?
