Waiting to find out results of an ultrasound to see if I have gall stones. My PA seems to think I might have an ulcer/ulcers. Anyone have them, and if so, can you tell me how they are treated. Worried they might have to remove my band.

I developed ulcers while banded. Still have them, although they're healing slowly. I take Dexilant and have noticed that I don't have as much discomfort.

Diagnosed with peptic ulcers and esophagitis about 18 months ago

i was treated with Dexilant for a few weeks and then switched to generic omeprazole when my insurance stopped paying for Dexilant.

I have been pain free and asymptomatic for about 16 months.
