gerd

I thought that I wanted to get the sleeve but I have really bad acid or gerd and i have herd that the sleeve makes it worse and that bypass could cure it. Is this true for anyone? What should I do?

Absolutely 100% true. I was sleeved in 2014 and converted to bypass on 7/1 to cure Gerd that developed as a result of my sleeve. Knowing what I know now, if I had gerd prior to surgery I would never had selected VSG but would have gone straight to bypass

I had a hiatal hernia repair at the time of my sleeve. My surgeon said it was a possibility of the Gerd returning and a future conversion would cure it. He still recommended the sleeve. 7 months out and no signs of it so far.

I had it bad before surgery but losing weight after surgery has really helped in my case. So I actually improved.
