Reflux after getting sleeved



Recommended Posts

I have had a time with my reflux since getting sleeved Dec 9, 2014. I have had test after test done. Well now they tell me I have Barretts Disease. They say I shouldn't have had the sleeve becouse it only makes reflux worse. Now they tell me. Felling so frustrated.

I had the same problem and could not get the sleeve because off my barrettes esphosphetes too. I had to get the gastric bypass which I'm so happy with. In 8 months I loss 108 lbs.

I just had to barium swallow and upper gi. I am scheduled for endoscopy next. I have terrible reflux and it was shown in the tests. They have prescribed Nexium. I am 2.5 years post op. I got pregnant 12 months post sleeve and have not been able to lose weight since delivery. Surgeon told me he has seen several cases post pregnancy when sleeve has stretched. So my sleeve is larger than expected now. So we are reviewing my options. I was a very slow looser to begin with losing 53lbs up until my pregnancy. That was with working out 5-6 days a week and tracking. To say I am frustrated is an understatement. Everything I eat gives me heartburn!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
