i will continue to keep everyone updated on how the procedure worked

Jennifer, you probably still have some swelling down in your pouch. Chicken can be pretty hard on a new pouch and yours isn't much different from a new one. You may have just really pissed it off. Try going back to soft foods in the morning...yogurt, milk, soup....things like that. Give your pouch a rest but if you continue to have problems certainly don't hesitate to call your doctor.
