Upper GI was ok

I had my upper gi and they said it looked great. He did say he saw some reflux So now I am waiting for the doctors office to call back.

Thanks for all of your support.

Hmmm.  Guess that is truly good news.  Let us know what the doctor's office says. 

I'm glad to hear that it went well. Do they have a plan/program to be sure that you are getting in enough fluids and/protien?

I guess that's good news.  At least there's nothing physically wrong down there.  Good luck on resolving the issue.

Jeff - that is good news... now keep us updated as to what the doc says...

Glad to hear that things were ok, Jeff.  Let us know how things are going.  Still sending up prayer!

Hi Jeff,
I am glad your pouch is ok.
Your doc will probally give you a perscription for The Purple pill used for reflux.
Cant remember the name of it.

 Jeff for the first couple of months i took prevacid and it worked really well. I stopped it just to see if it would make a difference after two months and so far I have only noticed some twinges in the pouch during a meal. I find that i am more sensitive to the filling sensation of food that with the prevacid but did not experience any acid reflux. Sometimes I joke around that my stoma must say LODGE in raised letters of cast iron. I think you will get some relief with a nexium or prevacid type prescription. I took some otc stuff prior to the surgery and got a good bit of relief from that nagging feeling of way too much food in the stomach but prior to a few months earlier had never taken a thing. I suppose its going to depend on you as an individual on what works out. I know its alot of trial and error and that has to be a pain in the rear but when you find things that work stick with them. 

Hey Jeff,
I'm glad you didn't have a stricture or anything more serious, keep me updated.

Thank you all for your responcs. I was giving my surgeon time to call this afternoon and while I was waiting I feel asleep (I seem to be doing that a lot still)  I did not wake up until after six and they were closed.
