Regurgitation

[Carin H]

Hi all. Here is some background on me:
Sleeve: June ‘11. Had constant regurgitation after I ate or drank anything for 9 yrs. Had tests done- hiatal her is and GERD (which was being managed just fine with meds). The Dr decided that it was reflux and he converted me to a RY July 22, 20. Just 1.5 wks into it, the problem has resurfaced. At first it was only once in a while. Now it is happening almost all the time.
Thoughts?

I had the same issue, however, the RNY last August corrected the problem for me. My surgeon was very specific on where he place the exit from my stomach based on the "mechanics" of what was happening with the valve at the top near the esophagus. Keep us posted on what the outcome is with your doc.
