Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 I am having a major problem here. My surgery was June 8th and without any complications. I've lost 85 pounds so far. I have been having pains in the stomach and aching ribs in the middle of the day for the past two weeks. Most afternoons I feel as though I crawl home and to bed until I feel better. I was getting to the point of calling the doctor. However, I feel like I know what is happening. As a teacher for the past four weeks I have only 10 minutes of lunch and usually I am unable to sit even for those ten minutes. I'm seriously beginning to think this is indigestion and gas. I started taking my antacid in the middle of the day instead of night. That change has helped some. But today (Labor Day) I had a slow lunch...30 minutes and now an hour later, no pain. So...I can't change my schedule. I have a hard enough time drinking my fluids during the day. I am on a steady pace between 6:00 am til 2:30 pm. Any thoughts are suggestions?
