Is it normal to have heartburn after surgery with general anesthesia Its been 4days since Ive had a LAVH and it feels like acid reflux and it is increasing.?
I just had shoulder surgery one week ago today. Several days ago the acid reflux started. I have NEVER had acid reflux in my life, so I have to assume it is from the surgery/anesthesia/meds. After 4 days I stopped taking pain meds (narcotics) except a little bit of Ibuprofen (600mg) at night to sleep. The last two nights the acid reflux is much worse. I have been sleeping in a sitting position/laying/sitting on the couch. I don't have an answer for you about what causes it or how long it will last, I just wanted to tell you that I have it too so maybe it is normal. Good luck.
