anyone heard or had a cardioplasty and Sleeve/RNY revision?

Hi

Don't know if this is in the right area or not. I hope I get some feedback.

I had sleeve done 2yrs ago and glad I did. I have had problems with reflux before sleeve and still have it. If I don't take Nexium it is horrible. I also have anti-acid liquid and also degas (I can burp like a man lol). Had a barium swallow and endoscopy. Great news is no scaring on oesophagus and sleeve is in good nick. Bad news is I have a hiatus hernia (knew already) and it has brought some of my stomach above diaphragm.

Surgeon said that he will need to do 2 surgeries - a cadioplasty to fix hernia and stomach and a RNY to help with the reflux. I had been getting too accepting the RNY but having another surgery as well is rather overwhelming. I am going back next week with any questions I have. Surgery is booked for 22nd August and it will be a long one. Have to admit he makes me laugh as he is very honest and upfront, something I appreciate in a surgeon.

So my question is - has anyone gone through this? or even heard of it?

FYI-Yes, you're in the right place. This forum pops up in all 4 surgery forums. But I'm of no use as I have no experience and haven't seen an issue like yours before. Re-post again in a few days if you don't get any helpful replies?
