    My dr wrote me a script for the prescription strength Prilosec. It worked. Took it prior & after surgery. By my six month post op, took me off completely. No signs of reflux now.

    Reflux is my biggest worry going into my band to sleeve revision. Ive been dealing with svere reflux for over a year now and I've heard it doesn't get better with the sleeve. Im hoping that's a falacy.
