I screwed up but

Never will I again, I got acute gastritis because I ran out of my stomach meds. Hadn't had any in 6 days I was hurting so freaking bad. Thought it was my gall bladder but it was mostly my left side not right. Had to go to the ER because I was hurting so bad. So nauseated vomiting foam mostly. Thought it was a heart attack to. Starting to feel better now. Keep taking your pills!!

What kind of meds, specifically?

The one your surgeon needs you to take to keep away the acid. Prilosec is a good one 40 mg

I'm still pre-op and haven't discuss the prilisec yet with my surgeon, but my friend takes it daily with her sleeve. I've never had heartburn, ever... is this something that everyone needs to take after surgery?

My doc puts all of her patients on it daily for at least the first six months, no matter which procedure you have.
