  1. Hi, everyone! I've been lurking here for about 2 months, and I really appreciate everyone's posts. They have been so helpful now and also when I was trying to decide on the surgery. Well... I took the plunge. Eight days ago, I had gastric plication surgery with Dr. Corvala. Everything has been going really well. No problems to speak of until...today. Today was my first day on full liquids plus chewable vitamins and calcium. I had a couple of spoonfuls of yogurt, coffee w/ creamer, and creamy soup--all for the first time. And all day my stomach hasn't been overly happy with the change. Has anyone found that they got heartburn or stomach pain/discomfort when you went from clears to full liquid? Thanks for any thoughts! Alex
  2. Hi Laura-- I had surgery on Jan. 6, so we're really close! Although I'm sorry to hear that you're having the pain too, I have to admit that I'm relieved someone else is having it. I haven't been exercising yet, but I'm encouraged by what you've been told. It doesn't sound like the docs think it's serious. Mine is getting better day-by-day too. Friday (my first day on full liquids) was the worst, and every day it improves. Good luck to us! Alex
  3. Thanks, everyone! I am on a PPI for the next 3 weeks. I didn't have much indigestion before my surgery. I am hoping it's just my stomach getting used to its new life. The pain is kind of stabby and like a stitch you get when running. It's under my left rib. It comes and goes. I think I read another post about plication people getting that a few weeks out. Maybe my tummy is just an over-achiever and doing it early!
