Same here! My surgeon said no way to VSG because I have GERD. He asked me if I wanted to live the rest of my life with horrific acid reflux, I said NO! He said RNY for YOU!

If all goes well I'll be having surgery August/Sept. I'm mom to two kids 7.5 months and 5. Every day I'm back and forth as I make my way through this process. My original hope was to have the sleeve but due to severe GERD I am not a candidate. I'm terrified of RNY from 15 years ago hearing horror stories. But reading more and more I realize that doctors have really perfected this surgery, and the risk of me having a serious complication from obesity is higher than the surgery in general. I have lost and gained 150 lbs in my life. I need something to stop the yoyo, I need something to keep me healthy, I need this tool to make me stay accountable. I need this to stop the horrific GERD that keeps me up at night, despite meds. Repeat repeat repeat everyday

I'm wondering what your outcome was? I'm in the process of getting the manometry to see if I qualify for sleeve or bypass
