Do any of you post-ops take prescription meds for reflux?

What meds do you take? I'm post-op open RNY, almost 3 months out. For the past 2 weeks, I've noticed discomfort in the sternal area that I think is reflux. I was diagnosed with GERD pre-op and was taking Zantac twice a day. This discomfort that I'm feeling does not seem to be the same as before surgery. I haven't taken any Zantac post-op. I have tried Tums/Rolaids on a few occasions, but they do not seem to help. I recently had an EKG so I know that this is not a problem with my heart. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
