elcee 3,341 Posted December 21, 2019 Hasn’t your Dr prescribed you meds? It’s pretty normal to take them for the first couple of months Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,220 Posted December 21, 2019 I agree with the above poster. A lot of surgeons prescribe antacids for the first 3-6 months post-surgery. Call your clinic. Even if yours doesn't regularly prescribe them for all their post-ops, they're going to want to know if you have heartburn (and they'll want to treat it). That would be especially important while you're healing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
