Thanks for the info. I am back on the omeprazole, but I am just curious if this is something that may still go away, or am I stuck with reflux forever.

Hey all - I've been lurking on the forums for a while here, but I just had surgery a week ago and I have a question. I had GERD prior to having gastric bypass, and I understand that for many people, GERD resolves with surgery. However, tonight I had a tiny bit of heartburn happening. I used to have intense reflux if I didn't take my omeprazole, and this was just a fraction of that, but it still irritating. So my question is - did anyone else have reflux this soon after bypass surgery? And if so, did it ever go away? Say, when your waist got smaller and stopped putting pressure on your stomach? Am I doomed to keep having reflux if it is popping back up this soon?
