Oh God, I'm having heartburn again. :faint:

I had lost restriction and had pretty bad heart burn for about a month and I read a lot of posts and such and Dr. C you said I might have a dilated pouch.

I was so scared so I went on liquids only (Slim fast and blended soups) for about 2 weeks or so and all my symptoms subsided. I've started eating soft foods such as cottage cheese, soft fish, some veggies and lots of yogurt and have been doing great until today. The heartburn is back!!!

Should I go back on liquids again and if so, for how long?

Thanks!!!!!!!!

Hard to say without truly knowing the status of your pouch...

What we usually do is a complete unfill, 2 weeks of liquids/mushies, then soft food for 2 weeks, then start filling again.
