Thank you for your reply chele. I'm hoping this will not be how it will always be. I am going to try Zantac or Prilosec today. Has anyone else who experienced this right after surgery had it subside after awhile?

I had my surgery done a little over a week ago on January 7th. The last few nights I have had bad heartburn that wakes me up during the night. I have been taking tums but am wondering how long this will last. I never really got heartburn before and it's not like I'm eating stuff that would usually cause heartburn. I'm hoping that this is just my stomach getting used to the new one. I really hope this is not going to be my new norm.

Tomorrow's the day!! Good luck everyone!!

Surgery is one week from today and I have really got to buckle down with this preop diet. Cheated a bit yesterday and I know I'm only hurting myself. Hard to believe this time next week it will be done!

Good luck everyone!!!

Good luck!

My surgery date is January 7th too. I'm excited, nervous, anxious yet looking forward to it and scared all at the same time. The pre op diet was supposed to be started on Christmas Eve so that didn't happen nor did it the next day but I am faithfully following it now. Nine days to go!
