I had mini gastric bypass in Tijuana Mexico with BariatricPal TeamMX. My surgeon is Dr. Selim Jalil Illan Fraijo. I've been recovering well with no complications.

I had a revision to the mini gastric bypass from the sleeve on March 31, 2016. I went to Mexico. I was scheduled with Dr. Illan but due to an emergency that morning (his appendix ruptured) Dr. Zavalza stepped in and did my surgery. No problems and I'm about 8 pounds from goal but smaller in size than I thought I would be.

I had he sleeve done 12/14. Since 18 mo the post op I have terrible heartburn and it gets so bad sometimes I vomit and it does t go away for over an hour. Even with prescription meds given for this reason.
I never had this before the sleeve. Would that be a reason to have the MGB? I'm so lost. My dr just keeps putting me o. Things . Carafate, 20mg Prilosec, liquid Zantac all hat wonderful stuff

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      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!!
