Q: severe stomach pain after eating or drinking
asked by: Beetle36 on August 5th, 2008

I have been suffering from horrible stomach pain that begins an hour or so after eating or drinking anything except sugar water (ie:Boost, chicken soup broth give me the same pain). It happens every single time I eat.
If I have eaten something solid (mashed carrots, rice, chicken noodle soup) the pain usually peaks and I just vomit it all up. I still have pain after I vomit but it subsides over the next 4 hours or so. I have had a scope (no sign of ulcer), ultrasound (nothing unusual - no gallstones seen), and a CT (nothing unusual seen).
I just recently discovered that by drinking Apple Cider Vinegar when in pain the pain is relieved. I am able to eat bits of homemade yogurt and very small amounts of mashed carrot but I have to keep drinking the ACV for a long time afterwards to keep the pain at bay.
My condition is not changing at all and I am worried to keep drinking all the ACV!!! I have gone from 125lbs to 112lbs and I am worried to keep losing weight and be no closer to figuring out what is wrong with me. The doctor has absolutely no idea what is wrong. Can anyone help at all?!!!!

Have you tried taking a gas reliever - simethicone? You may be experiencing severe gas pains. Try some simethicone capsules. It will provide relief within about 10 minutes. Have you considered getting a second opinion? A GI specialist may be able to offer some insight into this. Try the simethicone first.

This would happen to me after eating red meat. I was in the hospital for 2 days, and they found nothing, but I would be doubled over from the pain after eating or drinking anything.

It lasted about 2 days, and it happened twice. I don't eat red meat anymore, I just found out that I couldn't digest it.

Hope you feel better!

If this continues, you should see a gastroenterologist, and I suggest that they would query delayed gastric emptying (gastroparesis).
