Heartburn After Surgery

[Edan Ren? 25]

I got banded on the 16th, and now when I eat anything, like pudding, or an popsicle since I am still liquids I get heartburn when I lay down. The surgeon said he fixed my hernia and that would stop, any suggestions?

It could be from the swelling, you were just banded 3 days ago.

I would get some Zantac 150 and take it both morning and night, see if that doesn't help.
