Upper GI tomorrow

Hi guys!

So I've been dealing with acid reflux for a few months now, taking Prevacid and tums daily.

I got a 0.25 infill last week and I'm scheduled for an upper GI X-ray in the morning...I'm so scared I may have a slip.....this band has been my saving grace!! I'll keep u all posted:)

That's really scary! You are in my thoughts. I hope you don't have a slip. Will be waiting to hear the outcome of the tests. Good luck!

Update:

Turns out I have slight pouch dilation as well as an esophagus that doesn't push food/liquids down as quickly as it should. My doctor said to just be mindful of the foods I eat and to take Pepcid whenever I feel I need it..

My band is in perfect position, no slippage so that's a relief!
