Every website that talks about it says the pain can last from six months to a year, but most people are better by six months. I was just trying to see if this was a DS thing or if I'm just lucky enough to be one if the people who take longer to heal. (My face still hurts from my face lift, too, and there was nothing added there. I just seem to not be a fast healer, which I've read is common with DS.)
While Im no dr but...
Reflux is usually because you are reacting to something you ate. Almost like an allergic reaction. (Not always the case but a usual culprit). I would never take PPI inhibitor but I have taken H2 inhibitors (zantac etc). But once I just stepped back and listened to my body about foods and what and I can cant eat, Ive minimized any reflux and just take licorice root (capsules) to keep the acid reflux down and GI tract happy. Its gotten rid of the bloating. So Im happy as can be and not pumping pharmacuticals down my throat anymore. Which some actually made things worse because Id react to fillers in the pills.
But if I want to stray from my safe foods, Ill take an extra licorice root for good measure.

Something sounds very wrong. I would be consulting with a different plastic surgeon if still in pain after that much time.

I've had a couple procedures done, with the plan to do a couple more.
Thing is, I'm healing very slowly from them. They did a breast augmentation and six months later I'm still sore and in pain in that area. My plastic surgeon seems unconcerned; is it normal for this stuff to take a lot longer to heal than other people? Usually at this point other patients are 100% healed.
Patty pretty much said it.
The only thing that will hinder you is you. I powerlift and do HIIT. My surgery makes no difference other than must eat more protein.

After you recover from surgery you should be able to do anything. Well, at least anything you could do before you had surgery.
Hello everyone! I am

exactly, you think correctly! But it is better to consult a doctor.
