Long2BFree 12 Posted July 19, 2008 I had my surgery 3 days ago and am feeling a burning feeling when I take a deep breath. I know that a breathing tube was put down my throat while I was under and I also had a esophogus hernia repair. I'm wondering if it is normal to feel this type of pain? If so, how long before it goes away? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DragonSingapore 0 Posted July 19, 2008 Dear Long2 It was "normal" for me. I think a result of the swelling inside. It subsided and then oddly enough it came back about 2 weeks later for 3-4 days for no apparent reason. Went in for an x-ray thinking the band had moved but nothing was wrong. My doctor reassured me these feelings fell within the normal realm. Hope yours goes away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Long2BFree 12 Posted July 19, 2008 DragonSingapore, Thanks for the reply. I figured it was normal but had never read about anyone having it so I wasn't sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
