throat and chest pain



Recommended Posts

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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
