Default Back pressure and sleepiness 4 weeks post?

Hi everyone!
I'm new to the group but have read some posts and this seems like a wonderful forum with lots of great, positive people.
I have a couple of questions...
I get the strangest feeling of pressure - almost like a cramp - between my shoulder blades when I eat. Anyone else experience something like that? Should I be concerned?
I also wanted to ask if anyone knows a way to stay energized. Seems like every afternoon I feel like I will pass out if I don't take an hour nap!
Thanks!!

I'm assuming you had surgery 1 month ago...so what types of food are you eating? When did the "pressure issue" start up, recently or since surgery?

That said...if I ate too much, too fast OR certain foods that my pouch didn't like...I'd get pressure that began in my pouch and immediately went through to my back...and it would be painful!

Call your surgeons office if you have concerns!! Keep us posted, okay?
