Did u have hernia repair as well? I did..an I had them esophagus spasms for about a wk..it finally slowed down an stopped. My internists told me it would take close to 6 months for inside to heal.

No I didn't have an hernia issues but maybe these are still spasms. It's just every sip hurts.

That's what I did with every sip. I stayed 2 full days so I could get the iv fluids I knew if I left I would end up in er connected up again an I hate needles! Lol..
