AJ09 7 Posted February 8, 2019 Had my sleeve done Jan,15,2019. Before then i never experienced heartburn like i do now..its horrible the burning in my stomach and throat. To the metal taste in my mouth, feeling like i want to vomit. The Dr. Had me on pepcid complete and tums.. but that didnt do anything. Now i was out on a script pantoprazole.. just wondering if anyone else is or has gone through this? Does it get better?Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GradyCat 3,695 Posted February 8, 2019 I had bad GERD for about three weeks post-op, but now at 8 week post-op it's completely gone away, so maybe yours will go away with a little more time. After all, your stomach's still mad at your for having the surgeon poke at it. 🙂 2 FluffyChix and ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It did go away after about 4mos. I just took Tums with me in my purse and that helped me. Hope it gets better for you like it did with me. Think of it this way...for me the heartburn made me really question every little thing I ate bc of the repercussions (heartburn) 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ09 7 Posted February 8, 2019 Thanks for all the advice. I will try anything not to have this heartburn/GERD. I get it even if i don't eat. I eat very slowly abd don't over eat. I also don't eat past 7. I'm just praying this gets better....Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
