Ucler after WLS

[Dimples58 167]

Just curious...has anyone been diagnose with stomach ulcer since surgery. If so, how was it treated? I'm almost 1yr post op and attended a 1yr post op support group class on Wednesday. The RN really focus on things to eliminate after WLS. The top three are smoking, drinking alcohol and caffeine.

No Dimples58 but I have a small gastric ulcer pre Surgery. I am hoping my WLS wrecks Hector the Ulcers little red wagon and I'll be rid of him and my gastritis.

I hope so to. I was curious because I will be going on a cruise in September and may want to drink a little wine. I don't want to create any problems with my pouch. I'm a non smoker and don't drink caffine so these two things don't bother me. Thanks for your reply.

I drink coffee daily , no sign of an ulcer
Some people on here drink wine often, search the threads specifically for alcohol use and ulcers.
