Believe me, I know what that regurgitation is like. But mine is due to the fundo surgery. When was the last time you had an EDG? You might have some kind of stricture going there and it should be looked at. Since that surgery I have had 3 dilations and each one has helped, but I still have problems with it. As far as your meds go, they may or may not have an effect on it. I don't know. Please mention it to your GI and expect to go through an EDG. Lots of Gentle Hugs, ReeAnn ReeAnn M. Betts ReeAnn@...
