Surgeon recommended drinking a few sips of pickle juice twice day to help with acid and "foamies". Weird but it totally works. I haven't had any nausea, no vomitting, and no need for meds other than my prilosec since I started drinking it.

Might be helpful to anyone who is struggling with acid or nausea or bloating after eating.

I can now drink all my liquid requirement and all the Protein requirement. This is huge for me since I have not been able to meet either since surgery June 28th. I'm feeling so much better.

By the way, it also helps if you ate too much. Surgeon said my tummy is the size of a golf ball so about 2 to 4 oz. And my opening is the width on my wedding ring. So whatever I eat must fit through a wedding band and no more than would fill a golf ball.
