?? about reflux, ulcer, staple line disruption post op1

[Guest guest]

hello,

i am just curious to know whether or not anyone has ever heard of a

WLS patient being able to undergo a 'fundoplication' operation for

severe acid reflux AFTER WLS?

i am curious, b/c i am 3 years post-op and have always had severe

GERD. from previous scopes (post RNY) i know that my lower

esophageal sphincter is flaccid and does not contract like it's

supposed to, hence the acid problem. i know many WLS patients'

reflux problems are cured - but not me.

i have an endo scheduled for the day after tomorrow. they are also

looking for ulcers, due to pain under my left rib cage, and possible

staple line disruption b/c i have gained 18# within the last 10

months. from yet another previous scope (post rny), it was reported

that i had a 'tiny' staple line disruption - which they thought may

have happened when i had a stricture that had to be ballooned open.

anyway... thanks for letting me ramble... just wondering if anyone

has heard of it being possible to do the fundoplication operation

after WLS.

many thanx!

If you have SLD, why not fix it? That should take care of the acid problem,

too.

I went through this and was told that I cannot ever have a

fundoplication unless I am willing to sign all sorts of papers saying

that I know I'm risking my RNY, etc. etc. Essentially, my bypass is more

important to my health than totally eradicating my GERD, and as a

fundoplication is very risky for folks like us, I'd avoid it at all

costs.

Sounds like you might end up with a revision thanks to a SLD... Good

luck with that!
