JamieLogical 8,713 Posted January 27, 2017 Are you on a PPI? Your surgeon should have prescribed one after surgery, but if not you can buy Omeprazole or Nexium over the counter at your local store. I take two omeprazole per day and that has kept my heartburn and reflux in check. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
