protonix is the newest drug for reflux. It worked great before I had my band. I didn't have to take it for about 18 mons after my surgery. then the reflux came back.

reflux is dangerous!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It can be a sign of a change in your band so check it out! Also reflux when frequent can be a cause for esophageal cancer! It si not a good weight loss tool!

As unladylike as it is, I am still burping more since lapband than i did before it is actually quite embarassing...sometimes hitting me at the worst of times.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
