If It's Not One Thing Its Another!

I am only 9 days post op and I am getting even more frustrated then every. FIrst snag in the road was my drain causing a lot of pain. Then I get an infection in the drain tract after the drain was removed. NOW I can not eat or drink anything without it feeling it is coming back up. It feels like it is sitting and I have to literally push the or liquids down by pressing on my chest where it feels stuck and even with that it all feels like its coming back up. I thought maybe I am eating/drinking too much? but its not because it started up again first thing this morning with my first sip. So I called the surgeons office thinking its just acid reflux and now they want me to go back in and plan on staying for a while so they can run tests, iv for fluids bc im not getting my liquids in and medication. I read on here about how well some people are doing and i am so jealous. I just want to feel normal again.

  • After my surgery, my doctor prescribed Nexium to help my stomach heal faster... I luckily, did not have a drain... That Nexium works wonders...

  • hang in there. I understand feeling jealous of everyone who seems to have smooth sailing. Let them get you all figured out and hopefully this rough start will all be a distant memory soon.
