throat and chest pain

hhugs4you · October 2, 2008

I am 7 weeks post-op, the last 2 weeks I have had pain in my neck and down the center of my chest...along with nausea and burping....

Has anyone had a problem with this? I am planning on calling the doctor when I get back from vacation. I have tried to connnect it with what I ate or how much I ate, but there is nothing in common.

HELP:blink:

Hi!

I am five weeks post surgery and get the same pain in my back and upper shoulder. The surgeon tells me that it is normal, and that patients report all types of weird pains. I am also burping-almost involuntariliy) after I eat. It is LOUD and GROSS, but boy do i feel better afterward-making room or something, i guess.

I just had my follow up appointment with my surgeon's office. They actually made a point to tell me that my pain from overeating or too large of bites will be felt right down the middle of my chest. She said that a lot of people question that pain, but said that it is normal. I would definitely call the doctor if you can't find a common thread. I hope you feel better soon.
