Converting to Bypass 6 years after Sleeve

So June 11 I am scheduled to have surgery. Slightly concerned. I am having it because in the last year I have not only gained 37 pounds that I can’t seen to get rid of, but I also have GERD.

My questions are plenty,

Do I have to change the way I take meds?

i am also having a hysterectomy June 27, I tolerated Advil fine after my sleeve but read I should not even try it after bypass.

wondering what else is different

    No aspirin only Tylenol after your surgery. Also, I can’t absorb capsules well anymore. I use chewable vitamins and meds are in a coated tablet form.

    My GERD is gone! Wishing you the best in your future surgeries!
