Reversal of Nissen Fundoplication

I had a Nissen fundoplication 360 done 15 years and I had terrible complications. I couldn’t swallow any kind of liquid & horrible esophageal spasms. After a year I was able to swallow a little bit of anything that was the consistency of a milkshake. Anything too warm or cold would cause a spasm. The worst was that food and liquid would often get “stuck” in my esophagus where the wrap was & it was incredibly painful. After several failed ballon dilations I ended up have a revision performed - Nissen fundoplication 260. I still have food/liquid get stuck and have spasms on a daily basis.

I forgot to add that I still have reflux and am on prescription medication for it but still often have reflux slide up and through the wrap into my mouth.
