Really bad acid reflux

[Brianajubert 11]

Hello, im about 6 weeks post op from vsg and having really bad acid reflux. Last night it was bad and i had to drink ginger tea to soothe the burning sensation. I am taking nexium 40 mg whicj helps, but when it wears off, its hell. There is not a day where i dont vomit, which i believe is due to the acid & Constipation. I have to get myfluids in between my nausea which is causing me not get enough fluids in. Im miserable. Im not even eating because i dont want to get really constipated. Please help. Its a marry go roung.

Sorry to hear that I have the same problem (acid reflux) I have been sleeved 2years now Pepcid Complete helps me even though Nexium suppose to be the best the vomiting will go away no matter how much you dump out make sure you put back in Water Protein you don't wanna gain other issues from dehydration protein deficiency etc Good Luck

No but after omg this may be something you have to adjust to just watch what you eat and drink anything with alot of acid will make it flare up Orange juice Red sauces chocolate

I take Pepcid twice a day and that has helped me much. I also try to avoid any foods I know will cause it to flare up.

I used to take pepcide and it worked for the acid reflux feeling but not the vomiting.

A lot of it comes from food and drink choices. Got to stay away from acidic items (tomatoes, citrus fruits), high fats, and spicy for sure.

But apple cider vinegar is supposed to help. And maybe some peppermint essential oil too. Some others out there too...can't remember them.

Hope you find relief too.
