There is a network of surgeons who do the LINX procedure as well as the Nissan. I was fortunate to have one working out of the hospital I worked in. So it was an easy referral.

As far as the asthma symptoms go aspirating into your lungs can definitely cause bronchospasms. It may not necessarily be asthma but the symptoms can be similar. There is a correlation between reflux in infants and the development of asthma later which is what I believe happened to me. My Mother told me I would throw up constantly as a baby and by the time I was 4 I was diagnosed with asthma. In my 30's when the hernia became too large I would wake choking and wheezing like crazy and my throat would feel on fire. Hang in there and don't give up. You have to be your own advocate.🙂

How do I find a surgeon that does the LINX and also Nissan? I live in southern Oklahoma. But since I fell in June or July on my stomach. I’ve been coughing, and acid coming up the, asthma and been put on meds for asthma but that makes it worse..bad taste. But the test for acid didn’t show anything. I can’t convince the doctors to do something for me. I can’t hardly breathe and wake up choking on acid. When I can sleep. If you or anyone has suggestions I wld really appreciate it.
