Hi- I am new here and hoping to find some “real world guidance”. I am almost 6 weeks post op from VSG and about a week and half ago my GERD became debilitating! Drinking flavored water, Gatorade zero hurts and often make GERD worse. I am doing small sips.
Eating bland foods causes GERD TO WORSEN. Despite eating about 2 oz over 45 minutes. Sleeping elevated, has made a slight improvement. But trying to sleep is the worse. I am taking protonix twice a day.
talked to my surgeon and she is concerned, but wants to wait a month before further investigating.
was wondering if any of you have had a similar problem and if anything worked for you. At this point, I have not met my fluid goals for the same time period and I am starting to feel tired.
mahalo in advance.
