I ate fish broth like an hour ago and I feel this heat or like burning sensation in what feels like the end of my esophagus and the beginning of my stomach. I had surgery 02/02/18 .. it’s not the first time that this happens... would it be GERD? Help I don’t want complications

Yes, it could be acid reflux, GERD.

Are you currently taking a ppi? If not, you might want to talk to your surgeon about getting on one...definitely let him/her know if the problem persists. I believe most doctors will put you on a ppi after surgery to help with this.

Thank you for answering
But what’s a ppi? I am taking Riopan every 8 hrs it’s an anti acid

Protein pump inhibitor, cuts down on gastric acid secretions. I was on Prilosec, didn't work well now I'm on Dexilant. I have gastritis and a small gastric ulcer. And yes, I definitely have GERD also known as gastro esophageal reflux disease. The bad thing besides the discomfort? If your esophagus gets irritated long enough you can develop a cute little entity called Barrett's esophagus. This little stinker can turn precancerous. I had a cousin who died of cancer of the esophagus at 68 on the table at the Cleveland Clinic. Not a way anyone would want to go.

I’m sorry to hear that ..
did all of this happen due to the gastric sleeve?

No she hadn't been sleeved, probably if shed had been or at least an EGD they would,have found it soon enough to have saved her life, would have caught,it in its early stages. Sadly she just thought she"d ate something that didn't agree with her or that she had swallowed a fish bone and it had scraped going down.
