Are you on a PPI? Your surgeon should have prescribed one after surgery, but if not you can buy Omeprazole or Nexium over the counter at your local store. I take two omeprazole per day and that has kept my heartburn and reflux in check.

Sleeved 10/26/2016. I've only had 2 incidents of heartburn and Dr. prescribed the PPI which worked like a charm both times.
