Yes! Doc gave me carafate to drink before and after meals. I also take Prilosec daily. The meds really worked and I was a lot better after a week or so

My sister has a ulcer and she is 2 yrs post op. Then the ulcer caused a stricture.... she is in real bad shape, she can't keep anything down and the dr. needs to heal the ulcer before he takes care of the stricture. She goes on Monday to get scoped and hopefully the ulcer is gone and she can get the stricture cleared up. She is skin and bones !!!! And cannot keep anything down. The dr. has her on two meds one is the liquid that she has to take before meals and some other pill but I'm not sure what.

I know exactly what you are going thru.... my poor sister has been suffering a few months with this now. GOOD LUCK !

Exactly the same for me.

I was diagnosed with an ulcer at the anastomosis at about a year post-op. No vomiting but they picked up some blood in a stool test. Surgeon increased my prevacid from one a day to two. Second endoscopy four months later and the ulcer was completely healed.

Exactly the same for me.

I had stricture dilated and they told me the second dilation I had an ulcer. It feels like both are healed because I feel like I can eat too much now.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
