Guest guest Posted September 27, 2001 Report Share Posted September 27, 2001 Glo, Please remember that there is NO medications that will cure Bile Reflux. Carafate/Prevacid treat the symptoms, that's all. The ONLY cure for Bile Reflux is a revision/reversal. Having an Endo is the best thing that people who have had an MGB can do. Good luck to you!

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2001 Report Share Posted September 27, 2001 Broken record? Perhaps there is an echo in here? I for one do not think that it is the ONLY cure, I wouldn't even consider it unless I was in daily pain like , or nuts. I'm being treated successfully by Dr R as we speak. Tummy aches have stopped, and I believe we have caught the problem before it gets too bad. > Glo, Please remember that there is NO medications that will cure Bile Reflux.

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2001 Report Share Posted October 4, 2001 Good news!! Pat Eppler Glo's Endo Report Just got my results from the biopsies taken during my Endo last week. Negative for Barrett's and negative for HP bacteria. Just some gastritis, so I will be on the Prevacid and Carafate for awhile!
