Help!

I'm 3 weeks post-op sleeve .. I had to have my gallbladder removed Friday...now I can't eat anything with out getting acid reflux. Iv never had this problem. But I get it with anything I drink or eat. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I'm on an acid reducer/PPI and haven't had heartburn or anything. Did they put you on one?

[ashley1235 1]

Yes...they gave me a script for pepcid twice a day...I take one in the Morning and one in the evening.

The pepcid will help but personally I think you will need a PPI (proton pump inhibator) like Prilosec. Much better drug...in my opinion.

[Marty McSkinnystein 342]

Yeah, I have the generic of Prilosec. I believe it's over the counter too- which in your case means you could have it today! Good luck!

I find that pantoprazole works best! Ask dr
