Swelling after eating
Hi! I’m wondering if anyone has ever experienced this sensation:
immediately after I eat one thing, my stomach seems to swell and my clothes
get tight around my stomach. I’ve asked the surgeon about this and at first
he thought maybe it was a hernia, and said to wait until after I’d lost more
weight. Then on my 1 year check-up, he checked again and said that I didn’t
appear to have a hernia. I’m baffled. This doesn’t happen all the time,
and not with everything I eat, but it happens often enough to give me pause.
Today, and yesterday, I noticed it happened when I ate grapes, that’s just
one example. Any suggestions?

OMG! This same thing happens to me! Also, the
stomach swells right into my rib cage and hurts like
heck. My Doc thought hernia too but nothing. No one
in my support group has this problem. But the Doc
says it just the way my body is set up. Go figure!
