I have this and I thought it was from mals, are you saying the diaphragmatic and rib squeezing is new since surgery? Have you ruled out other compressions?

I had this before mals surgery but it was hard to distinguish what actually was mals pain. I had my mals doctor do new ct scan and bc my upper gi said normal he said it wasn’t SMAS. I have this squeezing, tightening all the time. I have discomfort when eating but not pain, nausea or vomiting which would indicate SMAS.
