esophageal dis motility after sleeve

[pinkonyx 0]

i had my gastric sleeve in 2014 november, i weighed 288 lbs and had alot of med issues, i had sleep apnea, diabetes, incontenence, high blood pressure. shortly after the sleeve it all went away, i then began with UPCHUCK everything i ate i would bring back up, my dr. discredited me , everyday i would call with the same issue , hello this is sharon what is going on everytime i eat i throw up!!!

finally i decided to seek a different dr. the new dr listened to me in 2016 he fixed a hihenal hernia, but it didnt fix the UPCHUCK, in 2017 he removed my galbladder after going to the ER and having a x-ray of my abdomin they found a inpacted galbladder and a ventral hernia.

still i had UPCHUCK

in may 2017 the dr decided to do a gastric bypass , i was 164.4 and as you geussed it i had more problems. i still had UPCHUCK they told me i had a stricture i had 2 EGD with dialation

still i had the UPCHUCK then the dr sent me for a esophageal motility test there it was the answer to my problem!!! my esophagus i have dismotility LES

wow so today im going for another EGD and i am seeing a thoricic dr who said wow what a mess i am a tricky , risky case

what do i do?

I'm in the same boat. I developed motility issues after my VSG in 2014, on Monday I was given a revision to RNY to try to tackle the GERD issues before they continue on with further treatments. What I understand at this point is that they have to take baby steps trying to minimize the impact of these complications by medication (do you have spasms at all?), or by surgical means. I was told that there's no guarantee any of these procedures would actually work. You may just have to wait and see what they throw at you. Ultimately I was warned that sometimes we just have to end up going with TPN when other treatments fail. It's a wait and see game.
