I bet you are! I would like to introduce you to @ken82, @dannyl, and @rozy288 who have also discussed their GERD here.
Personally, given what others have shared, I would steer clear of surgeons who have never done the procedure. The ramifications can be very detrimental.
Have you looked at any other surgery besides Linx?

We talked about what could be done - hiatal hernia, also. I trust this dr. But just want to see what the “residuals” are afterward. I’ve seen a lot about trouble swallowing, and that petrifies me. We are in south MS, and he is with the Memorial Hospital at Gulfport. Dr. Derek Ware.

@bevlynn54 .. I have chronic digestive disorders, GERD , Gastritis, Esophagitis, Small hiatal hernia, diverticulosis, and some IBS . The worst is 3000-4000 deep wet horrible belches and non stop churning gut 24/7 .
I’ve seen 5 Gastro Drs in 7 years. Tried everything under the sun . I’m off to Mayo Clinic Jacksonville tomorrow. I have to re do , 2 hr SIBO breath test , Entraogrophy C scan w/ contrast and another endoscopy with endo flip this time . In 2 days of testing . Plus they do a Covid test 1 st day . So 3 days .
Took me 7 months to get televisit. I’m at my last ditch effort.
Cannot eat anything w/ o major suffering. I eat so clean and healthy too .
I’m a mess . I hope you get the answers you need . I pray 🙏 they can figure me out . I live on Ultra Pepto and that’s it for my issues now . Can’t take much more . God Bless you … Rosemary
