This is for dhawkins i had the same thing done and esophagitis was seen and my specialist said this would not be a problem for the surgery at all so check with your dr because my specialist also has done research on the bariatric procedures, so i trust what he says actually a nurse friend of mines says some reflux problems will be resolved by the surgery, so dont worry just ask a your surgeon or dr and keep in touch
