I've been wearing an Underworks 997 all day today over a sports bra.  It's really comfortable, but it's giving me slight indigestion, like stomach cramps, when I try to eat.  Is this normal?

can cause GI discomfort, especially if you have GERD

Another thing to dislike about binding.  Looking forward to top surgery.

A short binder like the tritop will solve that.  I have to think about what I'm going to be eating if I'm thinking of wearing my long one.

Yeah, but short binders are uncomfortable.  They either pinch or roll up.

I've never had that problem with a short binder.  I get it more with a long binder myself, but everyone's different.

What about something like this http://www.underworks.com/men/compression-shirts/cotton-concealer-chest-binder which is basically a tritop with noncompressive stuff sewn onto the bottom?  You'd be able to tuck that in so it'll stop rolling up, and it wouldn't compress your stomach.

I've had it with both the double front and tritop binders. My stomach gets upset and I get bloated because it squeezes me.
