Reflux after getting sleeved



Recommended Posts

I have had a time with my reflux since getting sleeved Dec 9, 2014. I have had test after test done. Well now they tell me I have Barretts Disease. They say I shouldn't have had the sleeve becouse it only makes reflux worse. Now they tell me. Felling so frustrated.

I had the same problem and could not get the sleeve because off my barrettes esphosphetes too. I had to get the gastric bypass which I'm so happy with. In 8 months I loss 108 lbs.

I just had to barium swallow and upper gi. I am scheduled for endoscopy next. I have terrible reflux and it was shown in the tests. They have prescribed Nexium. I am 2.5 years post op. I got pregnant 12 months post sleeve and have not been able to lose weight since delivery. Surgeon told me he has seen several cases post pregnancy when sleeve has stretched. So my sleeve is larger than expected now. So we are reviewing my options. I was a very slow looser to begin with losing 53lbs up until my pregnancy. That was with working out 5-6 days a week and tracking. To say I am frustrated is an understatement. Everything I eat gives me heartburn!
