Stomach Pain - 5 days Post-Op

[Guest guest]

I had upper and lower monday. I have had problems eating food

post-op. I have mastered getting through my mouth and down the hatch,

but the problem comes when the food/liquid hits the stomach. It is

the most severe pain of this whole process. It is right a the bottom

of my breast bone. I just ball up on the floor and shrill with pain.

Room temp water seems to be the best and foods like apple sauce and

pudding are bearable with a water chaser.

Oral Surgeon thinks it is heartburn, so is recommending OTC heart burn

meds. Mylanta does some soothing, but nothing seems to resolve the issue.

I think it is related to the NG tube.

Any guidence?
