So I got the results of my EGD and apparently I have a non-erosive form of acid reflux. Also, biopsy showed questionable Barrett's esophagus which means I might have to have the bypass over the sleeve. I'm trying to come to terms with that possibility but my surgeon put me on protonix to help reduce the acid production of my stomach. I've been on a steady diet of ibuprofen due to some uterine issues and my love of spicy foods may not have worked in my favor for that. Hopefully, he can do the sleeve still, I'm still weirded out by the whole rearranging of organs.

Some folks would rather have their intestines rerouted rather than have 3/4 of their stomach removed![emoji4] And don't forget the RNY gastric bypass is called the "gold standard " of bariatric surgery. If you have to have the bypass you'll do fine! Hope your reflux gets better soon.
