Hi! While googling my issue I came across this site and love it!! I am hoping one of you can help me figure something out. I am 3 years out from my VSG and have been having terrible reflux, which leads me to eat a higher carb intake. Even water makes me burn. So, I have regained weight and at my follow up appointment I mentioned to my surgeon about the reflux and maybe resleeving. I had my upper GI today and in all my pictures my stomach looked like an hour glass. Very big on top and then also on the bottom. Is this normal? I can see why I am hungry all the time and do not get that full feeling anymore. The top portion was big! I'm not sure what to think. Does this happen or did my surgeon not do something right? I have a follow appointment with him, but would love some feed back on what to ask when I go. Thanks!
