Post Nissen Fundoplication complication

I had laproscopic nissen fundoplication surgery two weeks ago.  I currently have pain in my lower abdomen on my left side.  Should I be concerned?

It has been two weeks since I had Nissen Fundoplication and I have "sore spots". It will probably be another couple of weeks until all the bruising is healed. I can not eat! Doc says try very small pieces and chew well before swallowing, everything I try to eat gets stuck and I just burp it back up, by sqeezing....I pray that I have not traded one set of problems for new ones. My acid reflux was really bad and I could bend over and stomach contents would come out of my nose and also vomiting in my sleep. I am losing the desire to eat! It is a very bad feeling when the food gets caught in my throat. How are you doing with the surgery? God bless you

Hi...everyone heals at a different rate...u may still be healing.....I have not had this surgery, but know my rate of healing tends to be slow.

If u r concerned that something is amiss, please call ur dr.
