Congrats on a successful reversal, Tink. All the best. I think a little cramping is normal based on my own reversal experiences 10 years ago. Check with your doctor if it persists. By the way, I don't know where you reside but up here in the Northeast there's something going around causing folks to burp a lot after eating. maybe that's a factor. Good luck and be well.
