skinnyfeelsgood 2 Posted January 13, 2021 Hi! I'm about to be three months post op in a couple of days. Lately I wake up to heartburn pain and it'll last throughout the day. The pain is constant, but the level of pain varies during the day... Anyone else experienced this?TIASent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,220 Posted January 13, 2021 it does happen to some sleeve patients - not the majority, but a sizable minority. Sorry that you're dealing with this - chronic heartburn is awful! Are you on a PPI, like omeprazole or pantoprazole? That usually helps... 1 S@ssen@ch reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skinnyfeelsgood 2 Posted January 13, 2021 Yes, I'm taking an anti acid reducer pretty much every day now for the last 2 weeks... I don't want to have to keep taking pills... Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GivinItMyALL 169 Posted January 16, 2021 That happened to me. Told my surgeon, and he put me on omeprazole. It's been helping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattk53 124 Posted January 17, 2021 I was prescribed omeprazole by my doctor and it looks like it's going to be a "rest of my life" thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
