I just had my Linx removed. My Mayo surgeon who put it in 2014 also removed it. She said they now know that it builds up scar tissue! I was unaware that it had stopped working and developed ulcers and stage C esophagitis. Now back on meds and the explant was way worse then the implant. She also repaired a hernia with mesh that was also painful! If anyone is considering this surgery this is a site in Facebook called complications of the Linx.
