I don't have any restictions from my doctor on this but the safest bet is something over the counter like calcium carbonate aka Tums.

Gas X strips!! Several if needed.

Karpouzian, hope you find some relief. I don't even have a surgery date yet and am looking for relief even being on prescription meds. It is totally annoying.

If it is any help, I have seen several people on the site say it gets better after the surgery. Some folks say the acid reflux / heart burn comes for a few weeks and subsides. Other say it stays. It just depends on the individual.

I have a friend of mine who is almost 2 years post-op and he has to take a rx med daily but it keeps his acid reflux under control.

For heartburn? I've got some of those, and docs approved em.

A spoonful of apple cider vinegar, aloe Vera juice, cucumbers, baking soda in Water, green apple, pickle juice..

I've suffered with ulcers and acid reflux for over 10 years. Try these!
