Having issues after surgery

Need some help, I'm having major issues, I've lost 37 pounds, only down one size, I'm loosing more muscle then fat, I can't eat hardly anything, my stomach and sinuses are creating a ton of phlegm and I now have developed horrible heartburn which goes to the back of my neck! I'm in so much pain, 2 months post op, will this ever go away? Will I ever be able to eat? Just for reference I have multiple food allergies and only gained weight due to thyroid issues, not actually because I ate the wrong foods or too much, I was told this would be s good option for me, it would force my body to lose the weight, I'm not losing fat, I'm so weak I can hardly do anything, I can't have meal replacements, I can't find one I don't react to, but honestly the heartburn is killing me, the phlegm is so bad, I can't vomit up everything I eat, I'll never get better, does anyone have any help or have been through this? I'm so desperate for this to stop.

I have not had my WLS yet but have you asked to be put on something for the acid reflux/heart burn? Have they done an ultrasound to see if you have any defects in your esophagus?

Are you focusing on getting your protein in. I was sleeved on 12/23/15 and taking it slow on introducing new foods. You should consult your doctor to make sure nothing else is going on. Stay hydrated
