Hi, sorry to hear you are battling those health issues. I only had bad, not severe, reflux before my revision to RNY (I'd had traditional stomach stapling before) and the surgery solved that problem. The only times I've had reflux in the last 19 years has been when I've eaten something too late than went to bed or had some really bad stress. I do remember in support group locally there was another patient (same Dr.) who had RNY to cure her reflux and Barrett's. She only needed to lose a scant bit of weight but really needed the help for her esophagus so she wouldn't end up with cancer there eventually. She did and is still doing great, we only just follow each other on FB now but she looks in the best of health. I hope you'll get more answers from people with firsthand experience.
