I had a gastroectomy (80%) with the roux en y but mine was for severe acid reflux. I was getting stomach acid into my lungs. I am 6 weeks out of surgery and getting better every day. I had a Nissen fundoplication surgery 2 years ago that did more harm than good. I was told having the roux en y there's a slight chance of getting bile reflux so I'm not sure how in your case it would stop it. You're opening up a straight shot from your intestines to your stomach. I would get another opinion. Do your homework and search for a doctor that specializes in digestive surgery. Good luck.
