my reflux was so bad i would wake up with acid everyday in my mouth. my sleeve was never right from the start. i could never est anything solid. i had bypass, the surgery was tough but wasnt horrible. i was really weak after surgery so i was in the hospital for 4 days. since the bypass in september i have had no reflux and heartburn twice. i can eat basically what i want so im very happy

actually, many docs wont do the sleeve if you have bad reflux. i can tell you that since i had bypass i have had heart burn twice...nothing that I would even call reflux. i used to be on protonix but havent taken it since the bypass. they also do the barium swallow to see how bad the reflux is

well i had the same thing...band in 2008...sleeve in 2010. i had a tummy tuck in 2011 and i had bypass in 2013. i was down to a size 8. i initially lost about 5 lbs with bypass but now ive gained 10 lbs and im struggling to get down to my pre-bypass weight.

i had severe reflux with the sleeve and had bypass in september. i was concerned also about losing too much weight and that hasnt happened at all to me

i ha the bands, was revised to the sleeve and now the bypass. with the sleeve, i had severe reflux and vomited many times a day. that is all gone ive had some other issues with intermittent abdominal pain that they are working on now. but it is still better than what i experienced with the sleeve

i buy my calcium through them

it was my 2nd revision also. the healing went well. i was very weak after, i was in the hospital 4 days but after that everything went well. it took about 6 months to get my energy levels back

i had problems with tuna after my bypass

i use flinstones vitamins (thats what my doctor recommends) and i get my calcium from bariatric advantage and i also take over the counter iron

i wont lie. the RNY was rough. i ended staying in the hospital 4 days. i was very weak after. but it got better fast. i went back to work in 4 weeks

actually i was revised from vsg to bypass and i had the concern and i have not lost much weight since the RNY but my reflux is gone!

well i have had a complicated journey. i had the band in 2008. in 2010 the band slipped and i had the sleeve done. after the sleeve it was pure agony. i vomited basically everyday and had awful reflux. in september i had RNY done...it solved those problems, ive had a few issues since but not as bad as those. i needed to have my gall bladder out. that was done and i cont to have intermittent abdominal pain. the pain is severe but doesnt last long. my surgeon thinks i may have an internal hernia. he wants me to have a diagnostic laparoscopy to rule this out. i am so much better since the RNY

i had my rny sept 19th but i wont lose too much. this was done due to a complication from the sleeve. ive lost 10 lbs and would love to lose 5 more.

i had my gall bladder out december 7th. honestly the gas was worse before having my gall bladder out but im still having episodes of abdominal pain...not sure whats causing that

well i spoke too soon...the gas is back,,,like a long lost friend,,,NOT!!!!!
