Q: Chronic Stomach Pain - Gastric Bypass

I am 2 yrs. Post-op. Admittedly, I don't follow all the rules. The last three months, I have developed chronoic stomach pain. It seems to come and go around my menstrual cycle. I am on the pill and have talked with my gyne about this and she is not familiar with anything of this nature associated with being on the pill. I at times suffer from anxiety and my stomach tends to get the brunt of the stress, causing me to have a "nervous stomach", if you will. I have also noticed that I am burping a lot, which is not something I do easily with the bypass. It feels different this time and has come and gone over the last 3 months. Any ideas out there? I am planning on seeing the Dr. Next month when my new health ins. Kicks in, but in the mean time i'm not sure what to think.

Thanks!
