  12. Wow 88 episodes... was like that before the surgery?
  13. Hey I did a Esophageal motility study and results are: Esophageal pH monitoring: normal, just had 8 refluxes in total, normal is less than 50. esophageal manometry: hypotonic lower esophageal sphincter I will get back and talk with surgeon on Monday to decide sleeve or bypass, by the exam looks like would be ok sleeve as pH monitoring is more important than manometry but not sure yet... Anyone had a similar result? If so what you did sleeve or bypass? Thanks
