I know I'm really bad with blogging. Its been 5months now since my big surgery. I'm so happy one more month to go till I can start eating more again. Though I'm getting used to this protein soft food diet. Weight lost is a plus. Anyway go figure one month more and now I have problems again. Just fri I started getting food stuck again, feeling sharp burning pain o no! Today went for another scan again. Lets see what happens.
How I know my Nissen fundoplation failed and slips. I had got burning pain so badly pain in my stomach and heart burn. I would fell the burning going up. Sometimes I couldn't even sit up. I would lay down for a while. Nothing would help the pain go away. It would last and be on going. I would never throw up anymore. Then all of a sudden I threw up. After that I would feel my stomach muscles killing. The burning pain. It wouldn't go away till I had to repeat the surgery and fix it. First I would do a barium swallow to make sure it slipped. Yes barium is not that fun to drink. The scan is 1-2-3 easy. The test will show where the Nissen fundoplation is and if there is a hitial hernia. They say every 7 years you might have to do it over. For me it was every two years. Yes you will have pain. Even with pain you have to wait to get a date to have surgery again. Of course larascopic is the easiest. After two surgeries I had to have it open thoracic. The pain and recovery was hard. T
