Sir, I am suffering from continuous food reflux past two years. There is no heart burn at all but food continuously comes out. My throat feels tight. Vomiting is common every week. The doctor conducted barium swallow but everything came normal. My vitamin b12 shows low and mild fatty lever is noticed. I am n nexium since 1 year with no help. Am I ready for nissen fundoplication as my diet has been decreased massively. I am only 31 years old. |

Dear Gaurav You may be suffering from GERD and the indication for fundoplication is to establish that the esophagus is exposed and in contact with gastric juices for longer duration by doing 24 hrs pH monitoring and to do manometric studies to evaluate the tone of gastroesophageal sphincter and motility of esophgus body.So before surgery these tests are mandatory. You may come to our hospital on any working day with all the reports. The Laparoscopic fundoplication is very successful surgery and you can return back to your normal work. After surgery the patient is adviced to eat small frequent diets. Thanks With Regards Dr J S Chowhan |
