Hi Everyone!
It’s ages since I was last here. I had a fundlopication and hernia repair Jan 2019 and at 6 months out began having returned reflux. Back on PPIs (Somac) 20 mg x 2. My initial surgeon put me in the too hard basket so I’ve moved on to another gastro and associated surgeon. After many tests it’s discovered I have reflux and very high acid levels regularly in my oesophagus. At times the reflux is dreadful even with the meds. The surgeon said a redo was on if I felt my quality of life was severely affected but he’s not worried about
Barrett’s forming or the polyps in my oesophagus……. But the general gastro is concerned about
that!! So confused!! I am finding that keeping any constipation and at bay by drinking more water and having fibre helps my reflux.
Has anyone had a redo and why and with what results? I’m booked in for end of Jan but still unsure and not wanting to go through that recovery again or have a poor or no result.
Cheers
Rosie.
