Burn

M60 tanker,
Is this 'burning' causing you any pain?

You might need upper GI testing to rule out esophages motility problems. I had the surgery 7 months ago, and no more acid reflux, however, the chest pain became excruciating and so I had high resolution manometry and diagnosis is 'Jackhammer Esophagus'.

I am heavily medicated but now the pain is under control. This is a nasty condition and I will most likely need meds for the rest of my life, unless the nerves in the esophagus can heal now that my GERD has been cured.

Best of luck to you.

NO; certainly not, if you had Nissen Fundoplication by a skilled surgeon, you should NOT have regular bouts of acid reflux.

Going today to see the GI Dr. The problems are getting no better. I think hernia has come back. Same problems as before Nissen. A little over a year. I am a little worried.
