Im 3 weeks post op fundaplication. I had the surgery done because i had a constant feeling of a lump in my throat, losing my voice, constantly clearing my throat, pain and burning in my chest and regurge. The first week after surgery all symptoms were gone. Then week 2 and the "lump" in my throat is back on and off .
Is this normal ? Its 1 of the biggest reasons I had the surgery. I would eat and it was as if the food pushed acid up as it went down.

hello, your still very early in on the recovery, and your insides, are not very happy right now. the relief and healing comes in stages. with some set backs, bumps and worries, along the way. it took me a full 6 months, before I really started feeling good. right now, do not strain your self, stay hydrated. do not over eat. and give yourself plenty of time heal. good luck.
