@@Leahisabellapettersson share u experience with us when u had please

@@alimamohammed8771 sure. In the comment section?

@@Leahisabellapettersson yess

I just burp alot

Drink warm water in the morning before breakfast during the day it may help, it’s definitely helped me but not always but it’s worth a try

I had both surgeries back in 2021 & unfortunately, I still have the exact same symptoms. I went back to my GI doc & did a ph balance test. It shows that I still have severe reflux. I asked her why when I had 2 surgeries & she said that sometimes there is a 1% chance that this surgery does not work. I didn't even work out or lift anything that I was not supposed to. She gave me carafate & it's been a month on this meds & it is still not helping. She wants to do another bravo test and/ or repeat the surgery and have the band tightened. UGH Thanks for reading,

@@isellorganic so did you have to have another surgery?

Tell me about it ... GERD is a major factor for why I hate my life, medications for acid reflux barely work these days. Unless you count them making me constipated as "working"

I just had my TIF from 6 years ago undone because it was so terrible. They fixed the hiatal hernia I had and reversed the TIF. I would recommend just having the hernia fixed and stay away from the TIF. It was the worst thing I ever did.

Hello... what was the reco of your gastroenterologist? My gastro said that there is no funduplication here, but with respect to hiatal hernia, there are thoracic surgeon that can do that. I think in some countries, they fix this by sewing the muscles that came loose because it is weakened.. Not sure why your gastro didnt reco you that option. Unless there are some other factors regarding your hernia. Is it a sliding hernia?

​@@katherinecheng9360hi can you tell more infor about this? How is it different from nissen, and is it offered in the Philippines?

Why are you drinking ACV with Gerd? You don’t have an acid problem it’s a mechanical issue. More acid creates more acid. That’s a bunch of snake oil, internet garbage, home remedy.

Am also from Uganda asking myself where I can get tif from sometimes life is not fair, we need this technology all over the world.

How much has the acv really helped?

Thanks for suggestions.

@kevinbuff

Where did you have your surgery?

I’m going through the same thing . I have a horrible cough and feel like choking. I went to see my gastro today and going to do an endoscopy. I had to change my diet .

I burp alot , i was diagnosed with hpylori last year in april or may ,it went away after treatment. Then the same year in august i woke up burping alot and been burping since. I went to get a hpylori test and it came back negative. The doctor said i have gerd, i never even had heartburn in my life. Im very active. He prescribed me omeprazole for 2 monthsand said i will be better in 2 months .😅 its been 3 months and i still burp alot especially when i wake . I burp after i eat anything healthy. Thats why i want to get another test for hpylori

@@bikerdude6119 ppi like omeprazole won’t solve the resolution for GERD. It is just for temporary relief. If you can manage your GERD with food modification, that’s good. If not, a surgical procedure might be a better alternative.

@@johnhence5291 i went to a GI doctor 2 weeks ago and he said i may have aerophagia and it was caused by stress. The time i started having symptoms i had an issue with my son missing school and i got extremely frustrated ,,extremely... That night i had a sharp pain on my side and i went to go poop and went to sleep still mad. He doesnt live with me so you know how that is, but his MOM expects me to try and fix him when he doesnt live with me. Anywayss,, the doctor reffered me to therapy and said if that doesnt work along with a fomap diet ,to come and see him. I do know for a fact it had something to do with that night bevause the next day i started burping when i woke up. I had no acid reflux or heartburn so thats why he didnt want to put a camera inside me.. hopefully i get to control my stress better because if not im quitting my job and moving states for good to start all over again from scratch

Yes in UK

I think linx if you dont have hiatal hernia(?). Based on my own research on google, fundoplocation is usually done if there is the presence of hiatal hernia. Some people who undergone funduplication has some effects that they were not comfortable. Linx on the other hand is just for LES that's not closing properly, and no other physiological issues present on the upper GI tract.

Good morning. Thank you for writing. We encourage you to discuss this with your new physician and see if this procedure might be right for you. Thank you.

faithangel100 change your Doctor

Go to doctors that do this directly as they are the most informed of the benefits. Doctors that don't do these procedures can be wrong.

@@TheJuanh911 So true, sometimes going to the specialist straight out is better. At the least get a second opinion.

I have nothing but crappy doctors in my area that “know it all” but know nothing, they all tell me to stay on meds. And the meds are making me ill.

Did you figured out what was the problem? Or have it resolved by itself? Hope you feel better my friend:)

@@stnln2180 thanks not yet. I have an apt with the rheumatologist in a few weeks &go from there, thanks for asking

@@stnln2180 I cant find your other answer about the PPI. I haven't taken them for a long time. I never had this burning until recently, I also now found out that I only have one functioning kidney. I am going to see a rheumatologist later this month.The gi said I had some residual reflux after doing a PH test. She also thinks it could be something to do with the salivary glands. I Maybe it could be Sicca syndrom. I googled it & I think I have some of the symptoms but not sure. Either way something is going on, The dentist said its the BP meds & the doc said its not. I went to and ENT twice & he said my throat was irritated & swollen. I am at a loss.. thanks for asking

@@isellorganic In another post surgery video the guy was taking about h pylori that gives very similar discomfort as heartburn. This bacteria is striving on low acidity stomach flora. Check Dr. Berg videos about it.

I had to H pilori test both negative

did u did the surgery .. is you doing good !?

@@dadaboii07 yes I had the surgery and am doing great.

How long ago did you have the surgery and did you have a hiatal hernia or just gerd?

Had my surgery in June and I had both Gerd and a 15cm hiatal hernia. I was very ill because the hiatal hernia was so big it was blocking my stomach. I wasn't getting any nutrients. Causing me to become anemic.

@@irisrodriguez53 How are you now? Do you mind if I ask your age? Are you able to lift weights when you completely heal?

Ano symptoms mo??

Hi I have Gerd For a year at Bumili ako ng Gut alive it helps a lot.

@@LovingYouForever21. ano yung Gut alive? Effective ba sa gerd mo yun?

@@primoapolinar8220 Oo effective xa sa akin,

Wag kang kumain ng pagkain na may Mga acid. Like Orange, Strawberries, lemon yan mataas acid niyan . Yang tinapay bawal din yan kasi flour yan. Tapos pag kumain ka wag maxadong busog yong tama lng. Bawal din mga sofdrinks at Mga liquor specially wine. Dapat gulay, Salad, Tubig.

Good morning. Thank you for writing. We encourage you to discuss this with your physician and ask if a TIF procedure is right for you. Thank you.

They should be able to do a TIF with hiatal hernia repair combo.its less side effects than nissen but more effective than stretta.

I had a 10cm hiatal hernia. Had the TIF procedure. Still recovering. Had surgery on 6/3/20

@@RKB-zl3zv it's been a month. I have good and bad days but it's part of the recovery process. In over all an good. I've also lost 40lbs and two more months of recovery. I'm glad I had this done.

Iris Rodriguez what’s the side effects like I am 22 and have bad gerd. I have partial Barrett’s esophagus looking to get rid of this for good its terrible what is best operation for getting rid of the gerd

Yes , burning in my throat , throwing up , choking feeling . My ENT said I have acid reflux. Seen my gastro DR today and going to do endoscopy. Change your diet if you can. I feel a little better cutting down spicy food and fast foods. No caffeine

All i get is burping ,i was told i have gerd but never even had heartburn in my life. I think its hpylori even though it was detected back in november

Did you have TIF?

@@MsFRANIE12345 No I haven’t but I’ve seen a G.I specialist and he said I have redness and irritation in my esophagus but never offered me any medication or this procedure. I was taking Prilosec and he said the type of spasms that my stomach does, Prilosec wouldn’t help for my condition. I would love to have this procedure done to see if it would help me.

سلام اختي درتي العملية ؟

@@Motivational_Queen9 how did you get rid of it sir?

Change your diet. And go get endoscopy. No Caffeine or acidic food.

Sorry to hear that...my 3 years old have been suffering with that & so far medicine is not helping at all. He is only surviving on a formula still vomits a lot . Our life is like a hell. Doc said if we do surgery & in case it makes it worse .we can't undone it anymore. We are clueless 😭

@@tamannaafroz5408 I am very sorry to hear that. I had a hiatal hernia that was never diagnosed. For 20 years they gave me PPI meds that did nothing but completely destroy my digestive system. I finally had the TIF done but they did not repair hernia. The TIF failed like many of them do. Do the research on how many TIFs fail. After just repairing the hernia and reversing the TIF, I feel completely normal, no symptoms at all. I would get multiple opinions if possible and see if there may be a hiatal hernia. Also look into food allergies causing inflammation. Check out Dr. Gundry - Plant Paradox book I hope you find the answers you need very soon. So sad a 3yr old has to deal with this condition. Good luck.

We did his allergy check & its negative but found his hiatus hernia but its very very tiny . Doc said this hernia is not affecting him at all. Living in canada & feel like treatment is not that efficient & fast. Very soon moving to Calgary will see how the provincial treatment method varies from Ontario. Keep my son in ur prayers

@@tamannaafroz5408 I wish you the best!- One last note.. - my surgeon and other doctors did not believe my reflux symptoms were a result of the hiatal hernia either - UNTIL I MADE THEM FIX ONLY THE HERNIA AND ALL MY SYMPTOMS WENT AWAY IMMEDIATELY. I saw 6 or 7 gastro specialists and surgeons over the last 15 years and none of them noticed the hernia or more recently thought the hernia was the cause of my symptoms, they all said the reflux was a separate issue. Even my recent surgeon that fixed my hernia wanted to put me back on PPI meds and also perform a partial Nissan Fundoplication while fixing the hernia. I said NO WAY, please just get me back to my normal anatomy I was born with. He was open minded but hesitant to do this. They reversed the failed TIF and repaired the hernia, I am back to completely normal anatomy now. WOW - I have no symptoms at all. None, I feel wonderful and it only took 20 years of doctors telling me I was wrong, I have nothing wrong, just take these pills!

@@mikeroth3059 i totally feel u . 😔 so far we consult with 3 GI specialist & nobody did anything except giving PPI med & amino acid based formula & just told us to sit tight it will be ok slowly when he will grow up. But it starts when he was just 7 months old & now getting worse day by day . We gave a thought on fundoplication but as it irreversible we are scared to do so. We did lots of test all shows mild reflux but we know it severe that hurt my poor kid so much . He can tell us how much his tummy hurt , throat hurt & burp stuck . His words just make me feel helpless mom! Would u mind to tell how big was ur hernia? We did check 2 years back & that time his hernia size was quarter centimeters. Now we have to retest again to see the condition now

I had Nissan fundaplication does not effective me.
