Has anyone had a Nissen fundoplication procedure done to stop gerd? Is it worth it? Was told that if that procedure was done that I wouldn't be able to throw up but is that the only side effect? Really want to get off protonix.

First try diet, exercise and natural stuff. Protonix and Pepcid never worked for me and w side effects. With surgery, you will also have a lot of bloating and you might have to do the surgery again. Get off Protonix, and try losing a lot of weight. Google and do your research about Gerd and HH and exercises for HH, and see if you get better wo surgery.

I had the Nissen in 2015.. post operative gastropanesis was the result.. I have written several times about it.. Every meal is a challenge.. the local surgeon did it I had to go to Mayo MN to find what was wrong.. lost 50 pounds (was not overweight) have gained some back.. my first and only Nissen cannot be reversed . Damaged stomach nerves cannot regenerate..
