erp 2,016 Posted August 12, 2013 I don't have any restictions from my doctor on this but the safest bet is something over the counter like Calcium carbonate aka Tums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ribearty 544 Posted August 12, 2013 Karpouzian, hope you find some relief. I don't even have a surgery date yet and am looking for relief even being on prescription meds. It is totally annoying. If it is any help, I have seen several people on the site say it gets better after the surgery. Some folks say the acid reflux / heart burn comes for a few weeks and subsides. Other say it stays. It just depends on the individual. I have a friend of mine who is almost 2 years post-op and he has to take a rx med daily but it keeps his acid reflux under control.
