Yesterday I got it done. I do feel it, especially when I eat. It feels like food gets stuck and I have to drink something to make it go away. I also had a hard time finding a comfortable position sleeping because it felt like the monitor was pulling if that makes sense. The good part is after Friday I can get rid of this thing. The bad part is I can't take any heartburn meds (including tums) until I'm done with it.

Has anyone had the endoscopy with the Bravo pH monitoring? Apparently I have to wear a recorder afterwards and keep a food diary. My doctor is trying to decide if the sleeve or RNY is better for me with this test. My question is, do you feel the monitoring device in your esophagus at all? Any issues? I have had a regular endoscopy before and it was pretty painless.

I'm looking to read blogs of others who have taken this journey. I'm just beginning the process and started my blog last week. Please share the link for your blog and feel free to read mine and leave comments. Here's mine: https://bariatricballerina.blogspot.com/
