I never had acid reflux prior to my sleeve surgery on 12/21/11 but it started during the 3rd week. I am unable to swallow the protonix pill so I got the granules prescribed and I have to take it every morning to prevent the reflux during the day. Has anyone else had this problem and how long does it last?
