I'm still in my journey to Gastric Sleeve. Should be getting my surgery date at my next appointment. Just curious how many that chose the sleeve is now having heartburn or Reflux? And did you have any before surgery? Thank you ?

I got sleeved june 26th-no problem with acid reflux before unless i ate after 6:00pm and didn't wait long enough before bed . . . Not having any problem after surgery but i am still in puree phase . . . I also take prilosec daily . . . I have been told this will be a permanent thing to do (prilosec or something like it) . . .

My doctor explained that acid reflux and heartburn are much less common post-op because the reservoir for the acid is so different (absent). I'm around six months post-op and I've had no problems with acid beyond the first few days post-op. But that was so much of a transitional period, I'd ignore that and just wait it out.
