Stomach pain and bloating

Posted by goldenmummy @goldenmummy, Aug 20, 2018

Basically four months ago (April 9th) I ate a severely undercooked frozen pizza and have felt like something is stuck in my stomach ever since. The pizza had a lot of raw dough in it. I’m very bloated and nauseous a lot of the time. Also it causes other pains like arm pain and leg pain. I’m not constipated per se, but my motility is awful now. I feel like I have no movement in my digestive system. My digestive system is full of stool also and never really empties, even though I have bowel movements. I have had many tests done (MRI to test for Crohns, colonoscopy, endoscopy, and most recently a gastric emptying study) all with normal results. I believe I have raw dough stuck in my stomach and/or yeast causing a problem in my stomach. I have tried making myself throw up, but it’s hard to do and exhausting. I go back to my GI doctor on September 15. I think I may need to have my stomach pumped or have surgery of some kind, as I am not getting any better and it has been over four months. Please if you have some insight share it with me. I’m not sure what to do and I’m at the end of my rope. Thank you.

I appreciate you sharing about your vascular surgery, @bkatz43. As it has only been a few weeks since your surgery, are you able to eat more without discomfort now?

How long were you hospitalized after your surgery?

Yes, eating is without discomfort now although I often fill up quickly, which is not a bad thing! I was operated on a Thursday and out on Saturday. That is not the norm, but for me it is.
