Looking for answers to help with gastroparesis

I wished I had never had the nissen fundiplication done when I had my gastric pacemaker implanted for my idiopathic gastroparesis. I was miserable afterwards plus he accidentally cut my spleen and couldn’t get it to quit bleeding so had to take it out. I wouldn’t recommend the nissen fundiplication to anyone. Kathy

Kathy, 3 years ago I had a hiatal hernia operation. At that time my vagas nerve was damaged so my digestive does not work anymore. At the same time I had a fundoplication and now I have heartburn and have to take Nexium every day. I wonder if you could tell me about the gastric pacemaker you had implanted. Could it help with my digestion? Ann
