I had an EGD today, because I have not been able to meat ever and things are getting worse.  Now if it isn't crackers or chips or something that chews up to nothing I can't keep it down.  The doctor said my esophogus is ok, but I have a hiatal hernia...Anyone here ever have to deal with that.  I was wondering what to do next.  I am going to call my surgeon tomorrow and see what he thinks.  Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Jan

Easy fix laproscopically.  They will put mesh around the bulge to hold it in place.  I had my fixed during my RNY surgery.

I had a hiatal hernia that gave me trouble for years prior to RNY surgery. luckily though, my doctor fixed it during my RNY. He said it was an easy fix. Good luck to you!!
