Guest guest Posted October 4, 2002 Report Share Posted October 4, 2002 The acid/heartburn...I never had that even pre-op, and it has been getting steadily worse for about 2 weeks now...to the point where it wakes me up several times a night! Nothing relieves it for more than a few seconds. Of course, both of these ideas are just guesses till I can see a doc. What is the treament for an ulcer? *kristina* ulcers as a post-op??? > > > > Hi all, > > > > I am 2-1/2 years post op RNY and I think I have an ulcer.

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2002 Report Share Posted October 4, 2002 The primary sign of an ulcer is black blood in the stool. If that is not present, an ulcer may not be your problem.
