hiya everyone!

I am 5 days PO and just curious if you guys felt like a little uncomfortable wave of pressure every so often around the top of your rib cage?

Maybe still gas from the surgery?

Hi!! I am 7 days PO and I too have this pressure. I had my first OP doctors appointment today and my surgeon says that it is very normal. It is gas from the operation and also just regular gas that used to be in the part of the stomach that is now removed and the body doesn't know what to do with the gas ( the body don't know to expel it) so it just sits there creating pressure. I find that walking helps and after I can burp it out. Hope this helps

oh awesome, this is what I was thinking/hoping!

Oh.... I read that as a wave of pleasure lol ..... oh well lol better get my reading glasses on!

Did you also have a hiatal hernia repair. For the first two weeks post op I had what I described as spasms and my doc told me it was from the hernia repair. It went away and I feel great.
