It's now been 3 months. Stretta has NOT helped at all. If anything, I'm worse. I wrote be writing again UNLESS I start to get better. If I see any positive changes at all, I will return to update my...
Almost 10 weeks post stretta. Sadly, still no improvement. Also, my esophagus rumbles -- new post procedure. Also, I burp more than prior to procedure. Still trying to be hopeful....

I believe i am in the fb group. I have not seen any improvement from the the first stretta. Where did you hear that you need to see some improvement from the first one for the second one to work?...
Hey Martina - I'd consider a second after one year. From my research, it seems a second one can't hurt. I assume you're going to get a second one? Doesn't seem like there's any risk. Only the...
I'm 5 weeks and 2 days post procedure. Still no improvements and still worse than prior....
Day 30. Still no relief. Reflux worse that prior to Stretta and now have regurgitation which I never had before. Not going off the PPIs. Started taking Carafate as well. Really disappointed so far....
Day 25 - Still no relief. Seems to be getting worse instead of better. Still hoping it's too early to know anything. Burping, acid feeling at base of neck, slight regurgitation. Usually, I'm fine...
Day 22. Unfortunately GERD is still much worse than prior to the procedure. Hoping this turns around. I will continue to post here, hoping it's helpful to others. I just emailed my doc asking if I...
Day 18. GERD still worse than before the procedure. I know it's early and hope this is just a normal part of healing....

I'm 12 days into the stretta... have my own post called STRETTA 2015 that I will continue to update. Anyone know if Carlicalif is better at the 6 months mark? Also, Carl, curious where you got your's...
It's been 12 days since the procedure. At this point, i don't have any pain when i burp or hiccup. I'm eating everything, just like before. Unfortunately, my symptoms are worse in regards to REFLUX....
