Gas and Bloating After GERD Procedures! (My Experience)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- As requested I made a video regarding my experience with gas and bloating. As stated in the video, all of the issues with gas started after having a GERD procedure (Nissen Fundoplication) and they have stayed even after I got that procedure taken down. The Linx made the gas and bloating a little better because I am to burp now and all that gas doesn't have to come out the other end. Hope you guys enjoy the video and I will be bringing more content soon! Much love!!

I’ve commented this before its like you’re living my life. All your medical issues you have I have.. I think the only difference between us is I am so much more negative, props to you for keeping head high and trying to be positive throughout.
Thank you so much!! Stay positive and keep pushing. Don’t give up my friend 💪🏼
Hi Carlos I’ve had both of the same surgeries 6 years ago.5 months after the the surgery I had my appendix removed. Gas is is still an issue. My gastro doctor recommended I B guard and it’s a game changer! I’ve learned to manage my situation with the right foods and knowing my limitations. All in all I’m glad I had the procedures. Good luck to you!
Im glad you are doing much better. What’s B guard exactly? I need to do my research on that because I’ve never heard of it. Thank you for the love 🙏🏼
@@CarlosGranados1 I B guard is sold mostly online .it is peppermint oil capsules that calms down the gas quickly. I tried everything it’s the only thing that helped.
Shoulder pain is from the dioxide gas used to inflate the diaphragm area for easier space for surgery to be done
Yes, but I’ve research this before and it’s also the pressure from one of the nerves in your diaphragm that radiates that pain to your shoulder.
for the gas issue and to relief gas pressure, drink fennel tea (pour hot water on a spoon of fennel seeds)....that will give gas relief right away and it will make it easy to pass gas
thank you!!
I think if u get low carb diet . Meaning less sugars . You'll get less gas. Most foods turn to sugars . Remember cars acronym . C=coconut milk, a=almond milk, r=rice milk ,s= soy milks. Those have less sugars ?
Does not work. I have the same issues, and I have tried that.
Thank you for sharing. I always learn something new 😊
Than you! I will keep uploading more and more.
Had hiatus hernia surgery full wrap 7 weeks ago and haven't stopped belching since. Its non stop 24/7 even water makes me belch
I’m sorry to hear that. I hope it gets better for you with time.
I have the same exact symptoms as you are describing. Mine started 9 months after the second nissen fundo since the first one failed.
Other then the X-ray did kaiser do any other tests to diagnose you with inflamed appendix? Also did they put you in any meds. I have kaiser as well and after some blood work and urine test they sent me home because I refused ct scan.
Thanks for sharing by the way every-time I go through this I play the video to assure myself that I’m not the only one going through this.
I recently had a CAT scan and they didn't find anything with my appendix. Although I remember one time they saw it was a little inflamed but I believe it was because of the gas. When I eat trigger foods my lower right quadrant starts hunting.
@@CarlosGranados1 yup!! Dealing with the exact same issue. Thanks for the reply Carlos. God bless brother.
Try a food sensitivity test. Could be more to it
I have in the past. I am sensitive to some things unfortunately.
Peppermint Tea is my medicine for gas works all the time
I’ve tried that before and I actually think it’s delicious. Just doesn’t seem to work on me as much as people claim it.
Dies it stop the smell cause that's what I'm bothered about. What a nightmare
Hi Carlos , I had the nissen fundoplication surgery in 2009 also my gallbladder and my life change bad, I have a lot of gas every day, with pain in the stomach , I am taking X gas and no works for me. some day I am feeling no want to leave house, because the pain, the feeling is horrible. I will try another alternative like (LINX) but not sure. at this time my life is bad. are you taking any medicine for pain, do you recommended (LINX) . thanks Luis Hinojosa
From my experience I would have like to give the LINX a try first if I knew about it at the time. Regardless if the outcome would have been the same as it is now, the surgeon said I would have gotten the Nissen afterwards so I am not sure if my situation would have been drastically different.
Hi i am 22 years I did nissen surgery and i am having a lot of gas I am feeling really sad :( I tought everything will be perfect but it was noy real
Yeah, that is one of the main side effects of having surgery, unfortunately. How long ago was your surgery?
How are u now did u ask the dr if he able to help?
How are you
Presently how is ur gas problem
In the same b(l)oat with you!
hahahaha I love this!
Hola carlos gracias por compartir tus experiencias yo tengo 7 meses que me hicieron la nissen fundo y me siento peor, tu crees que podria platicar contigo unos 5 minutos? Yo vivo en chicago y quiero saver un poco mas de tus experiencias
Agrégame por Instagram y ahí te puedo dar mi información personal!
Hey Carlos, Hope you're doing ok. I've had severe gerd for too long now and it's become torture. I am seriously considering the linx. I live near Atlanta and was wondering if you could give me a ballpark of how much it costs in this area and if you were able to pay in payments. Also, was your doctor able to explain why it didn't work well for you? Could it be because of all the air trapped pushing on your stomach?
Out of pocket it costs around 8k-12k. This includes the doctors fee and the one 1 hospital stay. That at least was my cost but of course it depends on your surgeon and also the hospital. Too many factor play a role in pricing but that that was a ball park as to how much I had to pay.
We are trying to figure out why that is. I have a bravo study I am suppose to do soon to get more data and come to a conclusion.
I just wanted to ask you . Did they offer you the choice of doing the tif procedure, or was that the one u did have ?
The choice was on the table but the surgeons went with the Nissen and my second with the linx. They thought it was best at each particular time.
@@CarlosGranados1 I hope dieting is the answer . I'm trying it . Like low carbs
@@marktirabassi7160 healing your gut is very important. Avoid dairy for some time!
Question, when you got your Linx did they undo your "Fundo" surgery? Or do you just have both a "Fundo & a Linx"
Yes, I had my fundoplication reverse and then they implanted the LINX in the same procedure.
Are u doing better with the lynx?
My TIF Procedure was done 5 months ago and symptoms are back up to 30%. In another 6 months I think 100% symptoms will be back and TIF will be past failed experience. Just note, I took all medicines given by dr.
I’m sorry to hear that my friend! Let’s hope it doesn’t get beyond that.
Hey did you get relief right away from Gerd? I just had it done and still have severe Gerd one week later
No, the surgeries did not heal me completely unfortunately.
Now what is the issue
I also have that surgery but bloting and loss of appetite occure
What are you able to do for work? I feel like this complicates the job market for us 😒
Yeah man that’s very true! I work for the government and I work from home. So I am blessed to do that while going through all of this.
This is happening to me! I had my nissen during Covid and the first year and half were great;however, I have started to have extreme pain and bloating that makes my heart race and I start sweating and feeling a need to vomit but I cannot. I just have to white knuckle it for several hours. I am super scared as the pain is so severe. I wish I knew this too. Now it is back to the GI and testing. 😢
I am so sorry to hear that. I understand it is such a bad feeling. I hope you find some answers during your testing!
I hope you are okay now, sounds awful ❤️
Same experience after Nissen Fundoplication.
Im sorry to hear that!
@@CarlosGranados1 how was you feel now bro please tell me
@@mrcrazy5608 I still struggle with the gas and bloating
@@CarlosGranados1 how many year do you had this surgery
Do you have loss of appetite & depression
Hey I hope you’re doing okey! How is your reflux now ?
Thank you my girl! It’s still the same. Not much has changed.
What is the links/linx?
is a magnetic device. Almost like a bracelet that goes on your sphincter.
I did some research on it. I found out it's fairly new technology, but so far it seems to help many people. I got a nissen fundoplication around 30 days ago, and I was wondering, are you ever able to eat the same amount as before the surgery? I get full so fast now 😪
I cant stabd this gas any more.
I feel your pain!
@@CarlosGranados1 I've been eating smaller portions and it has helped. Just woke up and oesophagus still tickling with silent reflux though. Better than before though ✌🏻
What dies Silent reflux feel like for you? I am asking because I have been dealing with throat issues for the past 2 weeks.
@@CarlosGranados1 like a nasty taste in back of my mouth but I also keep coughing on acid..like a dry tickly cough. I keep feeling nauseous too. I've just had soya milk in a cafe because there not much else I can have and had bad nausea which is the silent reflux. I found reducing my portions has helped with the flatulance thank goodness
Do you feel relieved with gases and bloating now?
Nope !
How is your food.
What do you mean?
This is really hard to listen to…..
Im sorry!
@@CarlosGranados1 I’m sorry, I just feel like there are a lot of ums and ahs. I do appreciate you getting out there and telling your story! Takes a LOT of guts to do that!
@@barbgrispino7012 yeah you’re not the first one to complain about the “ums” and the “ahhs” lol. All these UA-camrs have become professional speakers now a days and I ain’t one of them haha.
