This video shows how doctors use surgery to stop the symptoms of heartburn and GERD. Fundoplication is a surgical procedure to prevent a back flow of stomach contents into the esophagus. The esophagus is the tube connecting your mouth and stomach. The animation shows how the upper portion of the stomach is wrapped around the lower esophagus to strengthen the cardiac sphincter of the stomach, which helps prevent GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease, aka heartburn). Hiatal hernia repair is also depicted. This involves pulling a portion of the stomach that has protruded from the diaphragm back into place.

The decision to have this surgery was one of the best I ever made. I was sixteen when I spent a year suffering daily from chronic heartburn pain and a hiatus hernia. Shortly after my seventeenth birthday I decided I didn't want to live that kind of life anymore. I spend one day in the hospital, and nearly a year later I feel awesome. I would highly recommend this to anyone who finds that medication and diet changes are not enough. I eat whatever I want, whenever I want, and there's no more pain.
how do you feel now?
Kristin Benoit how will I know if I have GERD I’m constantly vomiting for six months burping up acid vomiting bile stomach burn chest and heart burn esophagus burns and gets sore
Definitely would love an update. Thinking about getting the surgery done myself.
@jay please get an endoscopy done
How are you now?
I'm gonna have this surgery next month, wish me luck guys :)
How are you??
PAPRITKO i think he died
*@Antony Dann* Here's a great treatment for heartburn: www.HeartFix. xyz
PAPRITKO u good?
U good bro
One of the best things I did to help reduce GERD was raise the upper body portion of my mattress on my bed. So my upper body is on a slight downward angle. This really helped stop the pressure on my esophagus and stop gastric reflux. Highly recommend trying this
How does it affect you spine? Do you have problems with your back sleeping that way?
@@krisblaxter123 no not at all. I used to have bad back pain but I bought a new mattress, since then my back has had no pains. And the raised sleeping position is comfortable for me. I didn't have to raise it too high. I basically put a 1.5cm piece of wood on the bottom of legs at the head of my bed
I mean that's literally the most common way and extremely well known way to combat gerd when you sleep.
@@dhanchantel4357 Why is your brain so broken?
What's wrong with you?
Actually, i was also going through daily acidic heartburn but then i tried black salt in meal which helped me get relief from acidic heartburn but still food comes up a little bit without giving me pain heartburn but making me hard to breath during sleep
I had the op 4 year ago after taking proton pump inhibitors for 3 years. Feel great, can eat and drink anything, changed my life after many years of misery.
Now you taking ppi please reply me
Hey it’s been 10 years, is everything still okay any health concerns throughout the years?
PPI can cause kidney problems.
@@divinefemininekila2848 Non at all, doing very well.
@@jithinprakash449 Yes, I am actually stage 2 CKD but watch my diet carefully. Glad didn't continue with PPI for longer, hence the operation.

I had this surgery in 2002 and Gerd came back 4 years later. Lifestyle changes is the most important thing to do.
Oh noo.Really. So it is not a permanent change?
Agree ...strict diet and excercise is a must
@@wowerman It lasts 10 to 20 years for most people.
Most people have no symptoms for at least a decade after the surgery.
Eventually the wrap they put around the esophagus loosens but it last a long time and its also relatively easy to retighten later on if needed.
How long surgery work well is it permanent solution for gerd ??
You wouldnt need surgery if that was the answer . I have a decent diet and exercise regularly . I ve done all the things you are supposed to do but still feel sick as hell . The problem is the valve , no matter what you eat . It needs to be fixed and pray it works cause whats the alternative having a low quality of life .
I have suffered from GERD on and off since I was 2. Now being 18 it’s getting unbearable and I’m in pain most of the time and unfortunately I’ve become used to the pain. I’m on so many medications which don’t get me wrong they help a lot but it still flares up constantly. I’m always in bed bc it’s just to much to deal with the pain and get up and move around. My eating habits have become awful bc I’m so scared to eat bc any type of food hurts my stomach. Exercising and daily activities are a thing of the past bc it’s just to hard and I get so worn out so easily. I’m hoping to get this surgery done as it would change my life. When I found out about this surgery it brought tears to my eyes knowing that I don’t have to be in pain all the time and that it can be fixed!
how are you now?
How are you buddy?
@grace gill How are you now?
Sounds like me
I had the pediatric laparoscopic nissen fundoplication. I had been suffering from severe GERD for the past 2 years and it was unbearable. For those of you considering this surgery due to failed treatments, I strongly recommend it. The quality of life after the surgery is amazing. Do beware of pain after the surgery. I was in the hospital 2 days post op and had excruciating stomach pains. Make sure to take all the pain medicine you need so you can have some sort of relief. Aside from the pain, the diet afterwards sucked. Only liquids for 2 weeks after surgery, and then soft diet for 4-5 weeks. I am extremely satisfied with the results and glad to say that I no longer suffer from GERD after this surgery. :)

Had this fundoplication done in May 2018 to repair both hiatal hernia and GERD. I developed post-fundoplication dysphagia which made me lose weight as I could barely swallow any meal. After several esophageal dilations to fix the dysphagia failed, I went back to theater to have one of the tight wraps loosened on October 7th 2018.Ifeel better although I fear that due to the losening reflux may recur but so far so good.
Wow, best of luck man. Thanks for sharing that
I just had it done too. Was lucky as I only had trouble swallowing for a day or two. Hope mine isn’t too loose. Not so far, I slept on my right for the first time in years.
I had my surgery and 2 weeks later it hurts to eat and swallow and I'm still on liquids...so all I do is cry
I went through another stretch so far so good...ty for all your help! God bless
@@mukundkumar2633 so far so good..I'm on no meds for acid reflux
Over the years gerd made all my teeth brittle. It irritated my ears, nose throat and voice. Could only sleep on my left side on an incline. Acid pooled in my left cheek and destroyed two molars completely. It got so bad I coughed all night and ate a bag of cough drops every day. Pantoprazole helped but I just had this surgery done. Night after the surgery I slept like a baby on my right side. Five days after surgery I felt completely normal except the gerd is gone.
how much for the surgery
I could not agree more..have it since like 18 years old I m 32 now. The acid is destroying my teeth, destroyed my voice and when I say voice I mean singing voice..and it's just a nightmare of a lifestyle with this gerd. Been taking pantoprazole for many years now. Did the operation stopped everything? Can you do normal things? Like workout, run..eat normal..is the acid from your mouth gone etc???
Do you experience any side effect after surgery ? Some of the story i heard before they said they have problem to defecate. Do you experience the same ?
How did it go brother do let us know prayers with you!

Do not eat the following: Spicy foods, Greasy / fatty foods, Red meat, Tea, Fast food, Limit Dairy.

Thanks for this great vedio . I had this operation done 3 weeks ago .
I tried almost every kind of diets, PPIs ..etc.
I have been suffering a lot for about 20 years. I decided to have this operation done.
Iam still suffering from GERD even after the operation .
Maybe it needs sometime to get positive results. I will try to give you feedback later.
I know Gerd isn't easy & it directly affects your life quality. Be patient.
I forgot to tell you about symptoms after the fundoplication , for me I only I can have soft food in my diet. I can not eat bread , bananas , donuts .....etc . Food need to be soft , If not it gets stuck in the esophagus & it's not easy feeling. (This is the situation after 3 weeks of the operation, it might needs time to get back to normal)
More upadte bro
Maybe your sphincter isn't working right and then it's a total different issue with food not getting into stomach? Called Achalasia but I'm sure your doctor checked for that with all the tests done before any surgery.
@@polarmod2578 Really still suffering , still on Nexium tablets which is the only thing that can give some relief.
Maybe it's different from one to another , in my case the surgery couldn't help . May God cure you all , patience is the only way to deal with disease.
@@Sisu_24 Sure , my doctor had done many checks before the surgery. Now , with a new sphincter but still suffering as before .
A natural remedy for acid reflux is by eating red (delicious) apples. The more ripe the better. Make sure you remove the skin before eating. Apples are known to have alkaline effects which neutralizes acids. It worked for me and my family, friends and co-workers.
Apples did not fix my acid reflux, although I have gerd and had gastritis very bad after a surgery. Apples actually make my acid feel worse, however applesauce and applejuice in moderation with a meal seem to set fine for me.
Apples may well help mild cases, but severe cases need more direct intervention such as this procedure
@@jessicaabbassi1140 same here, apple actualy makes my gerd acting up
Then you didn't have bad reflux or any sort of physical abnormalitie.
@@stuartandrew9554 Exactly
49% recurring guys, that’s huge. Try the natural cures first, surgery cannot be reversed.
I agree
It can be reversed now
@@blizzard1646 it could?
This message is for anyone suffering from minor / major heartburn otherwise know as G.E.R.D. Consume 100% pure aloe vera juice when the acid reflux episode occures or before a large meal. This will supply the tissues of the intestinal tract with vitamins & minerals that are necessary for proper wound healing & will naturally rebalance the ph in the stomach causing the reflux to subside.
cody mccauley where can I buy it at?

@@Anonymous-gy1ub you can find the pasturized juices of aloe vera at places like whole foods & gnc stores. You can also find fresh whole aloe vera leaves & use the fresh gel in smoothies or by it self.
I'm 17 and starting to have GERD symptoms. It's getting worse week by week. I experience GERD symptoms thrice almost every week.

Heartburn and GERD surgery
(0:07) Your surgeon may perform a fundoplication to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease or to repair hernia. Digestion begins in the mouth as teeth break food into smaller pieces. Saliva releases digestive enzymes when food is swallowed it enters the esophagus a long muscular tube that carries food from the mouth to the stomach for further digestion.Contractions called peristalsis push food down the esophagus. At the bottom of the esophagus food passes through a muscular valve called the lower esophageal sphincter or LES. And into the stomach the digestive juice is secreted by the stomach our highly acidic. When the stomach contracts to move the food into the intestine the LES closes tightly in order to prevent these acidic juices from moving back into the esophagus where it can cause damage.
(1:07) A breathing muscle called the diaphragm - separates the chest from the abdomen. To reach the stomach the esophagus passes through the diaphragm at a point called the hiatal ring. If you have gastroesophageal reflux disease or GERD your LES does not close properly allowing acidic stomach contents to flow backward into your esophagus. If GERD is not treated it can lead to a variety of esophageal problems including ulcers, bleeding strictures or narrowings and Barrett's esophagus which is the abnormal growth of intestinal type cells in the esophagus - that can lead to cancer. If you have a hiatal hernia a portion of your stomach is protruding into your chest cavity through the opening in your diaphragm. A hiatal hernia can affect the LES and increase the risk and severity of GERD.
(2:07) To begin your procedure an IV line will be inserted into your arm to provide fluids and medication. A catheter may be placed into your bladder to drain urine. You will be given general anesthesia which will put you to sleep for the entire procedure. Once you're asleep a breathing tube will be inserted through your mouth and into your windpipe to help you breathe during the operation.
(2:33) One of two methods may be used for a fund application. In the traditional open procedure your surgeon will begin by making an 8-inch incision in the abdomen to expose the stomach and lower esophagus. After separating it from nearby structures your surgeon will wrap the fundus or upper part of the stomach around the lower esophagus and stitch it into place. This wrap acts as a belt which tightens and strengthens the LES. In the laparascoscopic procedure your surgeon will begin by making five small keyhole incisions. Each about 1/2 inch long in your abdomen.
(3:15) Through one incision your surgeon will insert the laparoscope which is a long thin tube equipped with a light and a camera. The camera sends images to a video screen for the surgeon to view. Gas will be pumped in to inflate your abdomen to enable the surgeon to see your internal organs more clearly. Through the other incisions your surgeon will use instruments to detach the fundus of your stomach from its surroundings wrap it around your lower esophagus and stitch it into place.
(3:45) If you have a hiatal hernia your surgeon will pull the herniated part of the stomach back into place in the abdomen and tighten the hiatal ring in the diaphragm, to prevent another hernia this can be done through either an open or laparoscopic procedure. To complete the surgery the abdominal incisions are closed with stitches or staples.
(4.11) When you awake from surgery you will find a small tube passing through your nose and into your stomach. This tube helps remove fluids and gas from the site of the surgery. And is usually removed within 2 days you will be encouraged to get out of bed and begin walking the same day of surgery.
Whoever voiced this should voice every medical video ever
The only medication I can recommend was Pariet. That stuff really works, but it's a daily pill hassle. I found it lasted about 24 hours (or just under) at 20mg. Then the symptoms return. There is a delay reaction if you take the next one, it does not seem to have an immediate effect, so important not to miss a dose. I no longer have to take meds after surgery.
How are you now?
I’ve suffered most of my life from GERD. When I was younger it would cause me to throw up everything and now that I’m
Older eating or swallowing anything at all burns sooo bad! I need this done
before surgery have you checked Dr.Nandis promising solutions for this problems ? People reporting good results so far maybe it will be helpful for you, wish you luck.

How many years you have gerd
I am from England.
I am now in my early 40s and wen i was 13 years old after stuffing my self eating a meal then around 20 min later I felt really uncomfortable and I couldn't breathe proper it honestly felt like sumat burst inside my stomach and i felt really uneasy i had no air TO breathe whole of my body went really warm and i just had no air TO breathe i then went to bed trying to brush it off but after waking up i felt same but a tiny bit better my dad took me to doctors i complained i can't breathe proper but doctor always sed my breathing was fine...
It lasted around 6 weeks this happend in 1991 age 13.
And through out my life I've suffered this . 1992/93 was ok .
Then suffered same in 94/95/96 .
I remember 1997/98 i was perfectly fine i recall it now i started smoking late 1998 And that truly made it worse and worse and 1999 i was very very unwell and felt like my stomach/WINDPIPE and foodpipe is knackered i just couldn't breathe i then had a ct scan for lungs and chest in 1999 but results came out fine..
I went better by 2000 then from late 2000 to 2011 the whole of 11 years i was fine.
Then may 2011 it HAPPEN again very bad went better by 2012..
2013 again that lasted 3 months.
Now 2018 this time its gone worse and worse!!!!! plz HAs anyone else SUFFERED this????????
I just recently got it I hope I get better it feels like I’m gonna die and it’s giving me anxiety and I’m 19 as of now

How are you now"
I am 15. I've had acid reflux and heartburn THREE nights in a ROW!!! Its REALLLLLYYYY PAINFUL!!! I threw up MULTIPLE TIMES, 2 nights in a row. It took about 50 total minutes for the pepcid and some other pill that helps with throwing up and acid reflux and heartburn to FINALLY work for me! I AM SCARED! Should I be ok? If I do have GERD and if I do end up having to get surgery for it, how painful is the surgery afterwards? How long does the pain last. Where is the insision made and how big is the insision usually. What are the after affects? How long is the surgery usually? Are there any concerningly big risks that come along with GERD Surgery? Like if i do end up needing to get the surgery, what are my odds of survival? How effective is GERD surgery? How long will I have to stay off certain foods after getting the surgery? And, what foods will i have to stay off of after getting it, if getting it? WILL I BE OK?
I'm 14 and since last year in the morning when I wake up for school at about 6am my chest would hurt seemed like heartburn it still happens sometimes but a few days ago I've been having a miserable water brash my mouth taste horrible I've been eating a lot of fast food and soda this week so hopefully a change in my diet will help.
Anybody else get burning stomach aches and the feeling of acid rushing up your oesophagus? It's not so much food stuck in my chest, but more fiery stomach pain and the feeling of acid coming up into my mouth.
Yep frequently, and I controlled an "acid attack" last night with mixing a little Apple Cider Vinegar with water. Pain went away in 15sec. See the cider vinegar acts as a base which balances out the acidic stomach. I try to drink a little ACV everytime I eat now.
Awful feeling

Dennis Veres Every morning or every meal i felt super nauseas. I would have to gag myself to get the feeling away. I was losing lots of weight which added the feeling of being light headed a lot. If I ate a big meal I would throw up which led to me not going out to social events.
Dennis Veres It make take weeks for it to start working so if you dont feel a difference at first be patient. You might have to do an exam called bravo ph before they can do the surgery to make sure. Also if you do the surgery no situps for a year and dont lift heavy stuff for 2 months
Dennis Veres I don't remember the score but I was told I had reflux 70 times in two days and the longest one lasted up to 30 mins
Dennis Veres No problem and good luck
I am 38 and been suffering from GERD since 21, now endoscopy says Hiatal hernia. I do massage between the rib cage also I get some relief for sometimes but again the same symptoms arise. Even the medicine doesn't work not even the injection. What to do now????
Thank you for this video. The animation and narration is well done very informative.
Excellent video. I'm having this surgery soon. I appreciate informative video this very much.Thank You.

@@mohamedbashir6734 I didn't have surgery yet. I had a barium swallow. Next I am having another procedure where they put a tube down my nose. Then a consultation with a surgeon.

How are broo now how you feel
Bro ippa nalla irukka
@ J. D. Ricks. How are u now?
@J. D Ricks. How are you now?
Most of the Hiatal hernia can be reversed naturally. You should really ask many 2nd questions before committing to surgery.
People want the easy way out and not eat healthier. But when they get the surgery they still have to eat healthy.
Sleeep on your left side..... It works
mohamed hakeim I absolutely have
Too
it doesn't help at all for me :(
I cannot even sleep on my right side any more 😭.
@@carlysmith9361 how do u get the book
How do you say there’s no god? It’s incredible how well everything in your body works perfectly and how the earth is just in the perfect place to where it’s not to hot or to cold wow
what does religion have to do with heartburn
It doesn’t that’s not what I said
Science is a subject that explains it, not creating it god created it
ok whatever if that was the case god had to create all of that🤦🏻♂️
@jokar jokar the same science said that hippopotamus were herbivores
Guess what ?
They are not
(They are omnivores )
So don't act like science knows everythig smh
@steve123140
I feel great had no reflux for over a year now. The only issue is that when I drink Carbonated drinks I have a lot of bloading. The bad side effect is lot of gas.
I hope this is a real cure, low enough risk, and something I could quantify for if I needed it.
now go vegan wfpb or raw brook goldner vegsourceyoutube
cant cure it only diet can cure things ¬STOP POIsONING URSELF
I'm only 24 and im gonna get this surgery this week.

@rajshekhardixit Where did you got it done
I got gerd from drinking coffee only in the morning. My first meal would be at 2pm. After few weeks i started feeling the heat in my stomach. But these few days i experience severe heartburn right after my first meal. Sleeping at night is the biggest challenge. 😭
Any updates
@@sowjanyapssowjanyaps3427 I’m fully healed now. I suffered for so many months. The first few months was the most difficult part. I drank only warm water to dilute the acid. I slept on my left side and I still stick to these habits. I avoid all food that could trigger reflux like legumes/milk/tea/hot peppers etc. I got scared to go back to eating like before. And i take probiotics pill everyday. I can’t live without it now
@@frauchen9864 even I also suffering from the same it started from 3 days but I can't even tolerate these 3 days plzz can u tell what are the symptoms of urs
@@sowjanyapssowjanyaps3427the first week i had only one meal a day cause it hurts so much everytime i ate. I relied on antacids 3 times a day. I imagined my esophagus lining being covered with blisters / like it was bleeding inside. Putting food in my stomach at that time was like pouring acid on the wound
I am 18yrs old and I recently got to know tht I'm having reflux oesophagitis ...i have been suffering this pain from past 6yrs ....intense stomach pain during midni8 and I get this definitely twice in a month no matter which diet follow.....any instant natural remedies so u guys can help me with
What are your symptoms???
Love this channel so much!!! Thank you!!
Thank you for watching and sharing, katalyst552!
Nucleus Medical Media I'm 24, been in pain for 9 years, and my doctor is basically throwing his hands in the air. No tests are showing what is wrong with me. I've had blood tests, an echocardiagram, two chest x rays, h pylori test, upper GI, ultrasounds and so one. All have come back negative. My symptoms are burning pain under and on my left 7th rib, pins and needles, numbness in the area, a feeling of pressure on my chest, shortness of breath, and lots of indigestion. Does that sound familiar? Anyone?
aslanmane yes!!!
katalyst552 Nice video, I love this video, especially the information about sites on acid reflux disease . Another resource I also found useful for ear damage due to acid reflux was Panlarko Amazing Reflux Planner - search google if you like
I have spent months studying treating heartburn at home and discovered an awesome website at Fergs Treatment Crusher (check it out on google)
Laproscopically, the scarring is not that bad and they fade away with time. 4 months down the track some of mine are fading pretty well. Open surgery will result in a longer more noticeable scar. The abdominal area is tender after surgery, and you will likely get twinges and things as scar tissues and sutures settle down. What will really hurt.. is your shoulders right after surgery if they inflate you with CO2. That was very noticeable... but after 3 days it was no longer.
Can you provide a source for 0:57 "When the stomach contracts to move food into the intestine, the LES closes". Can you provide a source for how the contractions induce the closing of the LES?
I thank you for taking your time go give such great information and making a great vid
I wanted to pass out as i watched this video cause it made me scared.
One Man On Fire same!
Surgery does not work, at least for me. Two years after the surgury, I got espighal canccer . They removed my espighas and brought my stomach to above my lungs.
@1993foxyroxy Yep, I used to get pain directly under my right shoulder blade. This was apparently because of the stomach. I have never had a recurrence of that. Normally it is under the shoulder blade than in the middle of the blades, but I guess anything is possible depending on how your nervous system is laid out.
And here I am suffering of unbearable pain and vomiting at the same time.
I have severe reflux and burning i can't go out if i do i can't stay out for long and i have to lie down when its at its worst
UPDATE: my doctor did an EGD on Friday (2 years after this surgery) the Barrett's esophagus came back... the next thing that's gonna happen if treatment doesn't work is esophageal cancer...
but you do not use diet because I see on facebook (fries)
Idk what to do anymore. My chest hurt and feels like something is in it. I have heart palpitations. I'm bloated. Every thing I eat get stuck. I have shortness of breath. And the middle of my stomach feels like acid is in it and is coming up to my throat idk what to do . took all medicines nothing working 😣
deleted. deleted. How are you now??
Pepcid ... do u get bloated and nausea and can't really eat
WERATHERDIEDRUNK huh??
Look up pepcid.. I have gerd and hospital told me.take pepcid
i hope u r better now
I need to get this procedure done, I was already told that I have a hernia in my esophagus about 2 years I feel horrible at least 3-4 days out of the week.. 😢
i'm having nausea multiple times a day i was just told it could possibly be a sign of GERD...... fk.
Hi I'm so sorry I didn't eat well my gas reflux symptoms come back,I done three year Nissen fundo
Try homeopathic meds it really helps but it's very expensive unless the insurance.
chew food 100 times before swallowing
I cannot bear this pain anymore.whatever I eat,my chest burns like hell.I am tired.
Thanks for the video. Just a quick question. Can GERD cause or contribute to ectopic heart Beats. I ask because I started getting both at the same time, around seven months ago. My doctor tells me that there is no connection but I am not so sure. Thanks again.
It can put pressure on the heart and lungs.. Probably causing your heart to slow down or speed up irregularly
Yes it does ... You are not alone - If you are sleeping then please go to the restroom 1st then sit there as long as ... you can remove some out - I have to use my finger most of the time ... because It is a big different feel ... much better ... less burn and the heart beat is slow down - Other way ... will take more time ... to fell better - After that go eat + drink and moving with any work as light exercise ... This step will help you more ... until the burn .. heart burn - Acid reflux - Gerd ... get along to your move and end up ... OK or much better ...
I plan to sleep 1 hour .. to 1 and 1/2
Then wake up ... with all these steps
about three ... four sometime 5 in my day ....
It increase the burn If sleep time too long because so weak and lazy wake up ..
These Acid went up to all over the mouth + lips + tongue ... more far as the laser shot to my face + eyes the into the brain ....
I search many treatment and believe the TIF will be the best one for me
Or the simple LINX
I will do the more these STEPS and will SHARE all information soon
Inventor van - you can see me in youtube and FB with : CO VAN THUOC NGHE God Bless ... Our hi tec these day and all the Doctors Can help us to recover with this disease soon
This surgery doesn't helped me against haital hernia. Still suffering from heart burn
What size of hiatal hernia u was?
I MAY NEED THIS PROSEDURE DONE TO ME CAUSE I HAVE LPR AND GERD
how is your gerd now iam also suffering a lot.
Hello, those who have done this operation what are the side effects that you feel the most and who is annoying you? no longer burping embarrass you?
I’m having this done in two months time. Kind of hoping I have the Keyhole rather than the 8” incision!!!
Did you have the laparoscopy nissen ?? How are you feeling?
how are you now?
@@penelopekokkonis6241 I had the laparoscopic nissen Fundoplication. Very glad to have had the keyhole surgery rather than the incision. Havent had a problem since
@@nightingalex9754 very well thank you. No issues since the surgery
I need help I have GERD and I'm worried it will turn to esophageal cancer is GERD lifelong?
I am getting this done April 22 of this year. No medicine will fix my GERD have other things going on with it also
Michael Shover im getting this done on April 24th!
Morgan Blevins good luck
Let me know how it goes with both of you. I might consider it too
How expensive is that?
@. Michael Shover. How are you now?
Get my surgery done cant wait
Really Helpful and very easy to understand for layman.. Thanks for sharing...
My mimi got a hiatal hernia repair so it was interesting to see how it's done!
it was giving me chest pain and making me tougher to breathe, i stopped taking them and now i dont have much gas again. I've been with this problem for almost 3 months now! these shitty doctors can't diagnose me properly, THEY ALL SUCK, they dont deserve their big salary. My problem started with heavy nausea, unable to eat for almost a week. Any idea?
I see alot of people feeling like i do, i just want to know if this surgery will make me eat again and what i like. I first felt globus sensation about 3 months ago and i didnt know what it was about then i ate a slice of pizza a week later and ever since i threw it up the acid and everything i would eat had been coming out of me. Now, theres barely anything around me to eat thats healthy and i can barely enjoy a piece of candy or a sip of soda without having to worry about heartburn. I take omeprazole and it only kinda treats it while im taking it and makes me throw up yellow/green mild acid but once i stop is when it darkens up to a dark color and makes it 2x times worse .... I want to know if theres any medications or treatment that will permantly cure this, if not then atleast if this surgery will??
One day out of nowhere I felt really sick like pressure on my upper abdomen I stopped eating I had chronic nausea and I had bad heart burn I lost so much weight I weigh 93 and I’m now taking dexilant but I still feel the burning and I can’t really eat like I use to
Take pepcid 30 min b4 u eat in morning and 1 b4 bed
I right away started applying this heartburn treatment CongiuShockingPlan.blogspot.com and for the first time in more than a decade I felt a significant enhancement and in such a short time too. As we speak I really feel wonderful and at the peak of my health. I feel so alive and invigorated. My symptoms of acid reflux are a thing of the past.
yarely galvan how is your health now.
I've been taking dexilant for about two and a half years or so. It works good one thing I can say is do not drink pop with this it will make you have a yellow acid like diarrhea. Maybe one soda pop a day would be all right. But I cut back to zero. I no longer drink alcohol anymore too. That will aggravate the problem.
Thank for clear teaching sir.
my husband had this done and now he has to have another surgery to loosen the nissen.
trista hommerding why
Why?
Why
Sm1 close to my heart is going 4 this surgery. I just pray he is fit n fine after.😊
How is he?
