3 weeks out and BAD reflux

[alaina25 9]

Has anyone else experienced this? I was taking Prilosec for about a week and a half but the last time I took it, it made me throw up so I quit it. This constant burping is extremely annoying, does it get any better? Thanks all!

Hi and yes it does get better. I used gas x strips for the first 4 months to cut down on the discomfort and burping. If I were you I would ask the Dr. For a different type of medicine for the reflux. They have it in liquid form. I took that for the first month post op ( liquid form). Best wishes

Thank you so much, I see my doc on Monday and will ask him.

Hello...it does get better. Gas X also helped me. And, drinking much slower also helps - try not to swallow air while drinking. The burping did last for several months for me. Levsin also really helped me. You may ask your doctor about this if it is really bad. Good luck.
