catwoman7 11,220 Posted August 29, 2020 most surgeons seem to have their patients on a PPI for the first 3-6 months. It sounds like yours doesn't automatically, but maybe if you let them know what's going on, they will (???) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shandy2002 0 Posted August 29, 2020 You should contact your surgeon because I believe majority of people start a PPI after surgery for several months. I had GERD before my surgery so I just continue taking it as a precaution. They do have OTC medicine you can get in the mean time to help. Nexium, omeprazole, etc...Sent from my LGL722DL using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m on my 3rd day & have it so bad I can’t get nearly enough broth or Water down. I never even had heartburn before so I hope it goes away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
