lots of pain - going for Upper GI tomorrow

About 2 weeks ago I started having lots of pain and vomiting while eating solid foods. At first I thought I was taking too big of bites or eating too fast. I have finally come to realize something is not right. Doc is sending me for Upper GI.

Has anyone had a blockage before and can you tell me more about it. This is the most painful experience.

Thanks,

BB

I had the upper GI and they found nothing wrong. I stayed on liquid diet for 3 days and started introducing meats again this week. Everything is working better. I guess I just irritated my stomach and it needed a break.

Thanks for asking.

Barbara

I hate to hear that you were in so much pain,but glad that everything is working out better! I went through the same thing right after I started eating solid foods. I had the upper gi and blood work of all kinds. Everything came back normal and my doctor said that I probably had gas lodged in there from surgery. Who knows? Everything is going better now.
