Im Learning FINALLY - WOW Yippy

So after my bought with the nose drippies.. I did some research... did you know that Acid Reflux can show up as Post Nasal Drip...?? Or mucus in the esophagus?  I did not... This weekend I healed and got better, Sunday I didnt get sick at all... Score one for Team Manda! Take that pouchie!   Then this a.m. I woke up and gag'd... WTH!? I then remembered taking my last urso gallbladder med right before bed, ok no big deal lesson learned.. right? Well this morning was a little rough, non stop nausea, post nasal gunk, nothing staying down... crackers not working... Then I found out about the reflux part... and    I had'nt taken any of my meds because I was nauseated... well I popped open that prevacid, took a swig of water.. and I sware it was like instant relief... AHHHH..... PHEW! Battle won! Throat gunk GONE, nausea GONE... Im sipping some protein... drink and phew... I feel like I can actually beat this thing... or learn.. or something... After the last couple of days, this is a blow for freedom and learning to control or learning what my new body and pipes need.... THANK YOU GOD!!!

YEA! You! Chalk another one up for Battlescars 101, been there, done that got the t-shirt exercise. Soon you'll be speaking at WLS Conferences as a subject matter expert (SME). Mandinardo SME,  Manster SME,...uh no,  AK SME,....well I'll work more on the moniker later. Glad you have identified and conquered this beast.  Good job!
