Do you think it's "reflux"?

Hi Everyone! Long time no see! Well back in March I had a problem with some food getting stuck. I never had had this problem before. It was aweful! However, eversince March, I have developed what seems to be "reflux" symptoms. If I eat within 1-2 hrs of going to bed, I am awake all night with reflux and choking. I have tried Pepcid and Prilosec and neither seem to help. Could it be something else? Carla banded 9/30/04

Carla- Always can be something else. If it's happening that often you better contact your Dr and get it checked out. Maybe a blockage or something. Good luck. Teri

We are really not supposed to have reflux after surgery, but I guess it could happen... I agree with the other "poster", it could ALWAYS be something else and it is better to have it checked out than just suffer or just wonder. Let us know what you find out!! Hugs, Pam
