Question:
Have increase in acid ?

I am 1 yr post op, have had to be on Zantac 150 mg, since surgery,it has continually increased to the point of being changed to a stronger med. called aciphex. Which has helped a lot with relieving the pain. Question is, why the increase in acid to the point of throwing up solid acid like bile, has something gone wrong?    — Anita K.

Increase in acid was one of the signs of my staple line disruption. I would look into it. My SLD was very small and did not cause me to gain weight, I was actually still losing....but it was there nonetheless.

What kind of surgery did you have?

Hi, I have to take Aciphex too, because I also have heartburn. My surgeon thinks I might have an ulcer. I would ask your surgeon about this, they should be able to tell you what is going on.
