That pain below your breast is 100% normal and yes it sucks. It will go away after a few weeks. I was on pureed foods as soon as I was discharged from the hospital. That was my surgeon though.

Please remember that we on this site cannot recommend anything other than speaking with your doctor and/or nutritionist when it comes to introducing anything new or anything sooner than what was recommended. If any poster tells you it's OK or not OK to move to pureed foods, they do not and should not give you direction on this question. Again..only your doctor/NUT should answer this question.

@@mouna, it's possible that the pain below your breast/rib cage is gas, especially if it's on the left side. If it is, it will pass. Try walking around, which often helps. In any case you will be wise to call your surgeon's office to discuss it.

Hi Kristen. The pain your in is probably gas moving around. It's horrible I know. Hot showers . Hot Water bottles help and taking paracetamol every 4 hours is a must for me. I'm actually 9 days post can wait to go onto mushy food in 5 days . They do the 2 weeks fluids to give your body time to heal after the opp hope this helps good luck

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
