Dr Aceves recommended nexium for three months for me. I'll try to start tapering off it after that. I'd love to end up on NO prescriptions drugs at all...just OTC Calcium and a multiple vit. That's my goal anyway.

After my surgery, My Doc didn't prescribe anything.

But If I remember correctly, it was my second visit back to him that I complained of the heartburn, and he prescribed nexium for me. I don't take it all the time, you pretty much know when something is going to bother you, so I just take it "as needed".

I also took reglan for a short time because I had so much trouble with vomiting. But I'm one of those that "treats myself" I don't wanna be taken a bunch of meds..... used it as needed. And was off it pretty quick.

I'm still on prilosec but, from what I've seen, that's pretty unusual to still be on it at over a year out. I did miss two days in a row and was okay, but I think I'll stay on them for a while more.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
