I also had my hernia repaired during surgery and was in quit a bit of pain and found it impossible to burp! In the long run, it is soooo worth it!! I had really bad heartburn and a lot of it prior to surgery and I have not had it once since! Good luck with everything and just know that things will be better soon!! :thumbup:)))

It seems like directly after I eat I have soreness in my port area. I was banded 7/8/08, so I am really new at this and just started eating solids. Maybe it is in my head, I was just curious if that is normal????
