Annoyed and Discouraged

[AngelWhisper 0]

My surgeon put me on a 2 week liquid diet 2 Fridays ago thinking I was too tight and had a dilated pouch. I had really bad acid reflux along with it. Today she told me to go ahead and start eating food since I felt a lot better and she would get me my gastrografin swallow prescription so I can go have that done. Well, I ate some crab cake and that acid reflux lump is back right in the back of my throat! I'm totally unfilled and was on liquids for almost 2 weeks. What the heck? I'm starting to think this may be more serious than a dilated pouch. Has this happened to anyone else?:thumbup:

wish i could help, but too new to be of any. hope you find your way through this and soon. i would keep bugging my dr. until it is figured out. sometimes we have to be the *squeaky wheel*. be gentle with you today, Dyanna

I'm fairly new as well, but I do know that constant acid reflux could be a sign of a hiatal hernia. I know that was the case with me. I too would bug my Dr. to see what is up.

Wish I could be of more help.

Good Luck!

I thought about the hernia too. I had a small one before surgery but I'm not sure if she fixed it or not I keep forgetting to ask. I'll definitely remember to bring that up to her again.
