Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Hi my fellow group members! If there is anywhere I can get an answer I'm sure it is here. I'm so impressed by the knowledge on the board!! well anyway 5 weeks post op Heller with Dor. No vomitting after eating which is good, I still feel it " hang up " which is my clue to stop eating, it seems like eventually it goes through. My main problem is a burning feeling across my upper abdomen ( basically right across the lap incision sites) This is bothersome but I can live with it (I'd rather not but we know we all make compromises!!) what is really bothering is a deep sharp pain to the left side. It seems to get worse with movement or if I try to take a deep breath. I went back to work on monday, it was so bad I had to leave yesterday. Took some liquid Tylenol at lunch did nothing, when i got home around 4:30 took some liquid Roxicet. Hadn't done that since about 5 days post op. Called surgeon, he said it was puzzling, but didn't feel it was urgent. I'm seeing him next week. He did mention something about a nerve possibly.Does this sound familiar to anyone? After reading posts it doesn't seem like I should be having any pain.I am pretty tolerant of pain, but this is scaring me!! Thanks for any input. from Mass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
