I just got off the phone with the nurse. They want me to try stronger antacids before doing an endoscopy and all that sort of thing to see why I am having these problems.

 

She asked me "Didn't they tell you your GERD could become worse after banding?" and I said "No, they told me it would get better."

 

I thought the acid reflux woukld get better with weight loss.:think

 

I have a history of GERD and Barretts esophagus is not something I want to get from this Lap Band
