thanks everyone

it should help believe I know its no fun

i have prilosec but i assume this person did not have did not have a per. for it

Ok here is what I do which helps. Take a pepcid once a day to control the acid overall. But go to Walmart and get their brand acid reducer which u can take as you feel all the pressure and uncomfortableness. If you do not want to combine those two still take the pepcid once a day and when u feel it coming on take a chewable pepto tablet or a maximum strength liquid antacid. This will relieve you. Try to drink water after meals because water helps settle the acid as well. I hope this helps.

not eating makes it worse because the air in your stomach pushes the acid up

I know but I am use to it

Well then I guess it will be business as usual for me

Hi, Was just wondering did anyone who had a vsg have acid reflux before surgery and now that you have lose the weight and have several months under your belt, did it go away Pleeaaasse tell me its gone

Can anyone tell me how this works?

good luck to all of you

Like you I battle PCOS, and I never really realized the weight was the source of the issue, this weight has caused me so many issues but I do not think weight makes you skinny or fat. I think you are who you are and you can only get better, look better and make your health better. It is normal to fear the unknown but I think you will be fine.

Please send me a message I would like to talk to you one on one

Perhaps this is a sign please do not take it the wrong way but basically you will have a new life after this surgery, you will be thin and looking quite sexy, this makes a boost to the confidence U may even decide to change your appearance when this happens others will look this will go one or two ways. He will either be jealous and start overly caring or perhaps someone else will be doing all the caring. Either way I wish you luck in your surgery everything will be ok one way or the other.

Wow..... I think you could tell your co-workers because one they like u and you are perhaps latina enough for them and two u r the one having the surgery........ smh.... people are so funny.

that will all change real soon watch

Damn that is so not right.... I am sorry he did not respect your wishes

lol ok

thank you lady lisa

Ok I guess I am asking once u select a doctor do u just call the office and make an appointment

Hi and thanks, my PCP is out of Piedmont Fayetteville. i have an appointment with her next month and will ask her of Dr.McGill so far I was told although my insurance does cover this form of surgery my husbands company opted out of those plans. It really sucks to pay money every month and still not be covered for what you need to make yourself healthy. Thanks for responding and I hope Mexico works out for you.

Hi Atlanta Sleevers, I am new to this process and have yet to really get my process moving, so far my insurance is a no go but I am still trying to pursue this surgery. My question to you is how do you go about finding the right surgeon? Can you share your process on the routes you have taken. So far I have been researching Surgeons and comparing. I notice that there are some form of seminar type sessions you are required to take but how do you get an appointment for a consultation? Help.............

U can do this this is going to be life changing and think of the results in the end u cannot let a little temporary liquid diet discourage you.... Think of the end result look at other peoples photos who have gone through this let it be your motivation.....

thanks everyone still looking into all my options and i have also looked into Mexico as well. I will keep you posted.

Sorry I stand corrected here I was talking to my son about allergy medicine not Zantac. Pecid Ac is what I meant to tell you....

congrats to you
