Acid Reflux...

Does everybody get it after VSG?

Vitamins I'm ok with taking daily, but medicine for the rest of my life... Not so much. :/

nope. My dr had me take prilosec for 2 months because it helps you stomach to heal. I have not taken them since then and no problems

I have it REALLY bad, and never had it before surgery. It is so bad sometimes I wake up literally choking on acid. I am 4 months post op. not trying to scare you, but I want you to know it is a real PITA and not just something that requires medicine. Even with medicine (PPI) it is still there.

Anybody else?

Dr Oz had a recent show with Dr Andrew Weil. One segment was on stomach acid and using GDL. I'm considering taking it.

Somtimes but it is minor. I may take a over the counter pill maybe 3 times a week. I call it sour stomach.
