Call your surgeon right away. Can be incisional hernia, cyst, or Fluid pocket. I would go to ER!

I know the road are bad. The doctor can be reached by phone. I would call just to ease your mind. Don't get upset just check it out.

Thanks! Im not hurting at the moment it's just sore to touch, I don't think it's an emergency, I'm just trying to relax, my husband will be home at 1:00 am if I'm hurting or start having anymore problems I'll go. Thanks everyone!

Try not to wait too long and don't use a heating paid. If its a Fluid pocket the fluid will come up to a boil. I dont mean to scare you but it happened to me with a previous surgery.

Finally my dr text me back and just told me she wanted to see me next week? So she must not be to concerned? But what I know I've never had heart burn this bad! I'm taking nexium and mylanta, so I thought maybe it might be a hernia?

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
