Does anyone else have this problem, everything I eat seems to get stuck in my chest or that is what it feels like. I am two weeks post op and it just seems like everything I eat gets stuck. I also had a hiatal hernia repair along with the sleeve. Anybody else??

Im 2 weeks post op and had the hiatal hernia repair too. The first days i felt justbas you described but it does get better. And i just had my followup and my doc said its normal that it hurts im the area where the hernia was repaired because of the swelling within. Hope you feel better soon!

I had the hernia repair too and I'm still a little tender... I'm only 10 days post op and was just cleared to eat puree foods. What types of things are you eating?

I was told you could use the strips. But i had no need foe them since i chose to stay oit of bed the majority of the time and walk it off. But you can try them it wont hurt tp do so.

Hi I had the hernia repair as well. I am 3 months out and am not able to drink or eat much. I keep heartburn and vomit often. They have given me so many kinds of meds to help. Nothing seems to help.

I'm 6 months out and had both done, I had the same problem and it didn't matter how slow I ate. It just sat there with pressure! It gets better!!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
