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!!

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.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
