Thanks for your reply. I won’t take PPIS any more. Too many side effects. Was on pantsprazole for 14 months to heal an ulcer. That’s it for me. My sister is having kidney issues from emprazole. What kind of surgery helped you? And which Mayo Clinic you went to. Thanks

FL Mayo, Dr Edwards did the surgery. Dr Wollson was the GI. I had dealt with this for 14 yrs. Omeprazole 2x/day. I had a couple of radio active ablations, numerous endoscopy's ,dysplasia at various times, schotzy ring, the hernia can change sizes but it won't go away. At the time of surgery it was large!! Omeprazole effected bone loss and most recently my creatine levels. The entire team of surgical people and the GI department were so wonderful. If you continue to have bad gerd you must do something to alleviate the problem.
