I had a friend who has this issue and her doctor told her to eat Probiotics (some yogurt) and she said it cleared up right away.

I am 9 months out and became lactose intolerant plus everything I ate ran through. I had a gambit of test and found I only have 2 natural flora left in my intestines which is causing many issues. I am now taking probiotics ( doctor gave me and take twice normal dose she said) plus I take metamucil 3 times a day and have pepto before meals. This is what doctor is doing before I go to a specialist. Helping some.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
