Has anyone had a dilation after nissen fundo? It seems to have stopped my reflux and my esophagitis is gone, but unable to burp. Wondering if anyone has been unable to burp after a nissen and had this fixed with a dilation?

Hello, I've had a dilation about a month ago 7 months now so it was when I was in my six month and it actually made me able to burp better I could burp a little bit after I had the Nissan it helped me I think.

If you have just recently had the NF done, I would wait and see if your ability to belch improves. Unless you are having difficulty swallowing, I would wait on the dilation. Your ability to belch is compromised after the surgery, but everyone is different. I had a full wrap and lost the ability to belch and vomit, and it really doesn't bother me.
