HELP!! I have 24 hours to make a decision!!! DESPERATE!!!

I haven't had surgery yet, but that's a good question. I had terrible acid reflux at night with the lap band. No problems before I was banded. my surgeon said either surgery also, but I'm afraid that even though I never had it before the band, I do worry about having it after I'm sleeved. As said by others, I'm OK with taking a PPI daily if it works for me.  Good luck on making your decision b/c I need it too... lol

First, I would not rush into any surgery.  If you need more than 24 hours take it.  

Second, I had reflux a hand full of times in my life pre op.  Post op I sleep with the head of bed elevated 9", take pepcid every night, sometimes tums and rarely reglan before bed.  Still get reflux if I drink water to close to bedtime. Not trying to scare you, just telling about me.

Third, I would still choose VSG given the same facts at the time because of the intact pyloric valve. (search Frisco's Pyloric valve 101)  Hope this helps.  

Thank u for the info.
