Sore Throat - All the time



Recommended Posts

​I have seen the ENT who says it reflux, went the GI droctor who did the scope and said it not reflux.

I take dexelant and Carafate every night, I remember what reflux was from the lapband and this feels nothing like it. I hardly eat so not sure how it can be

Has anyone else have this sore throat ALL THE TIME

No, I haven't, but something occurs to me.

When I saw your topic title, I immediately thought "reflux." Another possibility, I suppose, is that you picked up a bug of some sort. You're probably being asked every time you walk into a doctor's office if you've been out of the country in the past 21 days. Have you? Have you spent time with someone who has? I should say that I don't even recall why they ask the specific question, but, again, you may have picked up something new to you that may be either domestic or 'imported.'

Is the ENT going to do a throat culture and whatever other test there is?

But that's strange that it's not reflux ... Sometimes I get a sore throat if I drink crystal light

      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?
