I am 8 months post-op and for the first 3 months eveything was great! Exactly 2 weeks after my 3 month visit I started having heartburn daily and it always started between 4 and 8 o'clock at night. It got to the point I was sucking on about 10 Tums a day in addition to my over the counter pepcid that we were told to take for the 1st 6 months. Finally, I mentioned it to my Dr. on my 6 month visit and after trying 2 different presciption meds I am happy to report I am heartburn free. Next visit with him I want to discuss with him what is causing it as I did not have an endoscope to diagnose anything and I certainly don't want to be on meds forever. Time will tell. Good luck!
