Re: Question about strange burning sensation -4 months post myotomy

[Guest guest]

Are you describing pain/burning near where you stomach is? Anything with it like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever etc? Could be gastric- ie: ulcer/gastritis, could be your gallbladder - can occur after fatty foods etc. How long does the pain last? Are you having any gas? Just some initial thoughts.

I've been getting that too. I wonder if it is the soft diet or an

after effect of the pain meds. Will put that on the post up question list.

Thanks for some responses. I have been confused about when, after myotomy, all foods are Ok. Because I am thinking maybe--corn chips, popcorn, crackers have something to do with it, could not resist, after being deprived for so long--but surgery was Nov. 30. U of W was great, but not sure if after 4 months all foods are legal and OK, Anybody know?

As I understand it, all foods are legal and OK except

(1) any foods that cause you trouble, and

(2) foods that cause reflux (chocolate, caffeine, citrus,

ketchup, mint, alcohol). At least moderation is needed with

those foods.
