Hello, I have a similar situation with the mucous. I had my NF with HH repair in January of 2014. Since that time, I have had the sensation of reflux and have been put back on high doses of PPIs with...
Thank you for the responses. I’m scheduled for two more tests next week, so I hope that will help us find the route cause. The Dr that is ordering these tests is actually the second opinion....
Hello, I had my NF in January of 2014 and have been experiencing what feels like the return of reflux/heartburn for years (plus the feeling of something like mucous stuck in my throat). My GI doctor...
I'm 11 weeks post op and had to go back to soft diet because of getting things stuck. My advice is to listen to your body. I feel much better now that I am....
I have experienced this as well. I'm 11 weeks post op and find myself getting things stuck more than expected. I'm back to the soft diet (pudding, mashed potatoes, yogurt) and feel much better....
Thank you for posting! It's always good to hear a positive outcome!!...
Yes, I experience this as well....
Hello, I'm also 9 weeks post-op and am experiencing something very similar. It all started with a cold about 3 weeks ago. I've had and still have a decent amount of post-nasal drip and am having what...
I agree with Sleepyb and Michelle. I would imagine the warp should be strong enough to handle normal functions like hiccups and burps....
I was off work for a week and a half and then I started to work some from home....
Hi Sharon, My NF was done with the DaVinci on 1/15/14....
Good luck on Tuesday! Sending positive thoughts!...
Hello, I'm 2 months post-op so my wrap is still healing... 1) I don't burp like I did prior to surgery but I do have air that comes up. I also have hiccup-like things that happen instead of burps (it...
I lost 11 lbs in the first two weeks and then it leveled out....
Did the surgeon offer any explanation or advise?...
Hi Alex, I'm 8 weeks post op and have a similar issue. I've been feeling reflux for about a week and I'm really worried. Mine started when I got a cold and postnasal drip. At first I just figured it...
Hi Sleepyb, My shoulder pain lasted two weeks. It eventually faded as I started to become more active. Hope you have relief soon!...
Hi Murph, I'm 5 weeks post op and doing good. The first 3 weeks were very hard but things greatly improved last week. And the best part is no reflux and I can burp! My advise is to listen to your...
Thank you! I will definitely try the warm tea. I'm relieved to know that this is normal and that it will get better....
Not nauseated at all. Just feel like I have acid in my throat. Not sure it it's really reflux or the stuck food causing the feeling?...
Is it normal to feel like food is stuck and sits in the esophagus for hours after eating? I'm also having some reflux feelings. Could they be related? I'm now 3 weeks post op....
Thank you for the words of encouragement!...
I ate half of a baked potato today. :smilewinkgrin:...
Thanks Bill!...
Thanks Denise! It makes sense....
So, at some point will I be able to swallow pills again? Also, does it make sense that I have more trouble with pudding than chips? Seems that liquids are an issue over the last few days....
Yes it does. Thanks! :)...
So, today I am craving pizza (darn commercials). Any idea of when might be able to have it?...
Never thought I would get so happy and excited about burps. But it's definitely the highlight of my day today!...
Hi LimaB! Our surgeries were on the same day! I had some mashed potatoes smothered with butter and a little cheese for dinner tonight. Feels so good to have a bit of real food! Sorry I have no idea...
I'm happy to report that my little girgles are very effective in relieving the gas and I've even had a few "real" burps. The real ones were painful but they did the job. There is hope! :smile:...
Thanks Michelle. Strangely enough I almost feel relieved that my chest pain and trouble breathing are due to the pneumonia and not the wrap or mesh. I'm remaining optimistic....
I had a similar experience with Zantac. Mostly the dizziness and overall bad feeling after taking it for a while. Now my Dr has it listed as an allergy in my chart....
Hi Grants, Sounds like we are at the same stage. I had my NF last Wed 1/15. I'll be interested in the responses that you receive! Drove past my favorite Mexican restaurant today and it started a...
Yes, I definitely see burps in a whole new light now! The little girgles from yesterday have become louder and more effective today. Also have less trapped gas so I think it's helping. :) Thank you...
I started to hear little girgles in my throat right after feeling air pressure at the wrap. Could this mean that my burps are trying to return? I really hope so!...
Hi DSMB, Just want to thank you for posting your journal. Sorry that I don't have any advice - I'm new to NF since I just had my surgery on 1/15. Hope you find some answers soon!...
Thank you for the words of wisdom! That's exactly what I need to hear. I'm definitely going to invest in some Beano. Just knowing that there is a light at the end of the tunnel makes it feel better...
Greetings! First of all, I'd like to thank all you all for this board and your posts. I've been reading for a few months now and it has really been helpful. This is my first post here so I'll give...
