General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi, it appears that the vagus nerve got pressure on it during the procedure, and getting irritated. It may get relieved as the time lapses, other wise opening the abdomen and correction may be required. vagotomy may be the last resort.
I to my patients with such condition prescribe pragabolin, and methylcobolamine , for soothing the nerve. Thank you.
