OMG I'm so glad to find someone else!!! I'm the same way! I can eat/drink comfortably, I've never had anything come back up ( I eat slow and chew really well) some acid at times, some hiccups (had them often before surgery too) but I feel great! I'm 3 weeks post op today & can get my protein in easily.
I'm 6 days out and all pain is gone, no discomfort around incisions, nothing! Stomach feels heavy when I push my limits but I stop long before pain hits. Oooh except for hiccups!!! That's some bad juju!
