notmyname 593 Posted January 9, 2019 I had the sleeve and hiatal hernia repair October 29 and took two months off playing my french horn. Went back to rehearsal today and by the end of the 1.5 hours, I had some pain in my right abdomen when I played. Is this normal? Just my diaphragm getting back in shape? Or should I be concerned about playin? I'll ask my doctor when I see him on Friday, but he hasn't had many musician patients. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Recidivist 1,141 Posted January 10, 2019 Sorry, not a brass player. I am, however, a fairly serious amateur singer and sing in a local chorus. I've asked my surgeon if bypass would have any impact on singing, and she said it should not. 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
