Hello, I'm almost three weeks after nissen fundoplication and hiatal hernia repair and still continue burping a lot, still have pain in the left side of my stomach under the ribs, sometimes I feel like acid in my throat, no difficulty swallowing, but even though my surgeon says it's normal, I still don't know how normal it is. Anyone had this experience?

Welcome, @sandralewis62, I moved your question along with the helpful replies to this existing discussion in the Digestive Health support group.

I did this so you can read past helpful posts and connect with other members like @andreaallies0 @lindsaymorgan1 @kayjay209 @ken82 and others.

Do you have these symptoms during the day while active or more at night when reclining or sleeping?

yes, I had a very similar experience, the pain under the ribs does not sound normal, left side, went back to the surgeon who said everything was normal, but it wasn't. Two years later, I finally found a couple of surgeons that are figuring out what the first surgeon ignored.
