I had my surgery the 11th and came home yesterday. I can't sleep because I'm so uncomfortable and my stomach is burning. Any advice? Is stomach burning normal?

I had it for a few days also from the acid and blood in your stomach - I was told to take a small amount of milk of magnessia and drink as much water as i could = It only lasted a day our two

sounds like acid. Did they put you on a PPI, like Protonix or omeprazole (Prilosec)? A lot of surgeons put patients on these for the first couple of months. Call your surgeon's office and let them know what's going on.

I guess I'm just paranoid. Yes, I'm on an acid reducer. You know how it is right after surgery and you worry about every little thing.

Not sure if you're on gallbladder meds yet, but that stuff gives me a burning sensation the doc says everyone reacts differently.
