  1. Surgery date was april 5th. I am down 34lbs since 1 week pre op. I have not lost any weight in the past 3 days, is this normal? I am not doing anything different. Just curious what to expect and see if I need to change someting.

  3. I had my surgery on the 5th of April and 2 days later developed a "spasm" or Sharp pain in the center of my stomach right below my sternum. Thus pain is excruciating when it comes on, lasts for 5 to 10 seconds then goes away. Thus happens several times an hour. Has anyone experienced this? The nurse told me it is the esophagus adjusting to a higher pressure and that it gets better but it is getting worse. I am down 31 lbs since pre op diet but right now with this pain am wondering what the heck did I just do!
