don't yell at me, what is PPI again?

I don't have it, I'm 3 wks out, what is PPI

Protein Pump Inhibitor -- acid reducer.

thanks for responding, my dr didn't give me that

Proton pump inhibitor, it's a medication that reduces stomach acid. Not all surgeons prescribe them for their patients; your surgeon will suggest one (or not) based on your individual case.

thanks, I got a lot of meds but not that one, I have something that is like a rx strength pepsid, pain pills, etc.

Pepcid is actually a PPI, so you're probably on something similar.

thank you so much
