No pain after surgery but now is scratchy as all get out. I don't seem to be having any reflux issues but not sure if this may be tied to it. Have done well on my diet so not sure what else this could be.

thoughts?

There are a couple of possibilities here:

• You just have a sore throat, because you're coming down with something and it's nothing to do with surgery.
• You have acid reflux irritating your throat. Are you on a PPI?
• You may have oral thrush. I developed it post-op due to the liquid antibiotic I was on. If you look in the back of your throat, do you see a white coating on the back of your tongue or the sides of your throat?

Has it felt this way since surgery?

It doesn't feel like I'm coming down with anything...but that could be it. I'm on PrevAcid. Nothing white in the back of my throat...sounds like that's a good thing.

Nope...just started on SAT. It's not terrible hurting but enough to be a pain.

Allergies?

Unfortunately not. Doc diagnosed acid reflux and upped my dosage. Never had acid reflux before. Oh well, still wouldn't change a thing.

Did you take those gas x strips they made my throat and roof my my mouth burn and itch so I stopped taking them

Keemi - My surgeon put me on over the counter PrevAcid. The dosage says 1 pill a day for two weeks. He said 2 pills a day and continue. Since I've done that, absolutely no acid reflux. Each doctor will be the different so you should call and ask if this is okay.
