Ulcers???

Question for anyone out there....Has anyone who has had the VBG developed ulcers after their surgery? I am eight months out and have been every two or three days. About a month ago, my stomach was scoped and they found a couple of small (?) ulcers. The gastrologist said this was not uncommon with persons who have had the VGB. In speaking to some others in my support group who have had the same surgery, they had never heard of this. I am currently taking Protonics in the morning along with Carfate an hour before each meal. It's not helping as much as I would like as I still the same as I did before. However, I don't seem to have the burning or hunger-like pain that I was having before the meds. Kudos to anyone who has any comments or suggestions re my ulcers. Hugs, Granny Eileen
