Guest guest Posted January 8, 2004 Report Share Posted January 8, 2004 Hello: I am 2.5 yrs post op and just had another hernia repair, this time though with a Spinal Block (a great way to go from a recovery perspective). However, since my surgery (about 3 wks ago), anytime I eat or drink anything, my stomach balloons up, I am just full of gas and then dump like crazy. My question is, could this be caused somehow by the spinal block? Did it somehow affect the nerves in my RNY cause it to not work effectively or something? Did not occur to either my surgeon or myself that a spinal block may have a different effect for post RNY. Anyone had any similar experience? Thanks Reta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
