hi there, I am about 4 months post-nissen with conitinued burning issues. I have had all the required tests and we have found that indeed I do have continued BILE reflux after my nissen. Bummer, but...
well, had my endoscopy yesterday. looks like I may have something called eosinophilic esophagitis-----ontop of, with or because of GERD---not to mention that it looks like I have Barret's. This would...
Hello again, I am about 10 weeks post nissen. I hate to say that it seems the surgery did not work for me. I have throat burning/chest pain still 24/7 and it actually seems to be a bit worse than...
Hi there----I am new to the forum. I am taking apriso for bowel inflammation. I am wondering if anyone has ever had the side effect of heartburn? I also have acid reflux, and since being on apriso,...
hello there, I recently started taking apriso for bowel inflammation. i have been on it almost 4 weeks with few results( an few side effects which is nice). Is it too soon to see results? Also, i...
Hi rafael, Well, it is nice to talk to someone else who is still burning. I never had much in the way of regurgitation, so that does not present a problem. My symptoms now are essentially the same as...
I am back with an update. I am almost 7 weeks post-op and still burning. I have a ph test scheduled for next thursday, so that should tell me more about the reality of what i am dealing with. is it...
ps--the condition when the esophagus empties slowly is called achalasia. I was tested for this before surgery with 2 motilty tests and came back as not having it. Can surgery cause this?...

hi again, bill, can I ask you a few question, since you are the only person i have found that felt the same thing? did the post op burning that you felt mimic the pre-op reflux? for example, mine is...
yes, it seems it will take patience. Bill, did you feel as though you still had heartburn? or just a few occasions here and there. Mine feels just like before...all the time. I will try to drink more...
denise and bill, thank you so much for your responses. It is really good to hear that someone else actually had this, and it got better. I will do my best to relax and wait for the swelling to calm...
Thanks for the welcome to the wrapped club. Other than the burning continuation, I am doing very well. I am moving slowly at 8 days out and have to rest a bit, but I am eating soft foods, digesting...
