I’ve had my colon removed since 2010 and j pouch since 2011. Monday morning my digestive system was acting normal, I ate my usual lunch of 1/2 ham on white, Colby jack cheese, boiled egg, peaches and baked chips. Usually after I eat my system starts gurgling and have all this gas that seems to pool around in my pouch until I go to the bathroom. Yesterday that didn’t happen and I started to get a sharp, burning pain in my upper abdomen right around the breast bone. I wasn’t really able to pass any gas or empty pouch until around 6pm that night when the pain subsided . I did drink some grape juice thinking it might be a blockage and I think that helped. I’ve been able to empty my pouch Tuesday and today but still not a lot of gas coming out via the pouch which is unusual, but have been belching yesterday and today all day and my stomach feels bloated . Don’t know if I had some sort of blockage or if it has something to do with my gallbladder. Anyone else experience this?
