I had the same thing happen to me, plus I had a stricture. I had four EGD over 3 months to stretch out my esophagus. I am doing better now. Felt like I wanted to just end my life for a while there. I hated my decision to have the surgery. Now I eat small amounts and am doing better. Prilosec, carafate and reglan are my regulars.
It will get better. Hang in there. My surgery was in Sept 2017.

I'm 3 weeks post op and feeling great. Yesterday was the first day I had no pain at all in my main incision site. I'm able to sleep on my sides now(thankfully!) and feeling pretty good. I do have to remember to still be careful with moving or twisting too much because by the end of the day I will feel some pain/pull like in my lower stomach. I feel like I can almost eat anything in my phase1, moving to phase 2 today. I'm a little nervous for fear that I will start gaining weight. I do get a little full sometimes and do slow down with eating or drinking when this happens. But hoping for the best! People at work are starting to notice my weight loss. I've lost 27 pounds since 2 weeks before surgery.

5 days post-op. Still hurt, but doing great. Wearing jammies still. First day in the real world tomorrow.

You should be fine. Just take it as easy as possible and plan for extra naps before or after you work! The first day or two will be rough, but you'll get your energy back soon!
