hello dear people

In 2018 I got the Fundoplication Toupet surgery. It ruined my life, since there: the heartburn and reflux are almost gone. But I got so much other problems, I can not handle (pain, can not burp well, fullness, gas bloat syndrome, foodintolerances, malnutrition, underweight,digest problems and so on). I swallow air as well and it makes it so worse. Is there somebody with the same problems and did a relocation? Thanks a lot for your help..

I also had the Toupet surgery performed 8 months ago. As you mentioned I have some of the symptoms you have mentioned, in addition I have developed “Bile Reflux “ along with gastritis. This is not what I expected. The weight loss is difficult as too the constant discomfort from the rearranging of the stomach. I am feeling at this point that my surgeon wasn’t the best to have performed this. He had only been doing this for 4 years.. I think I should have consulted a more experienced surgeon.. I am sorry we both are having to endure this obviously imperfectly performed procedure.Please shop to find the most qualified hospital and surgeon before undertaking such a procedure.

Thank you so much for your answer. Yes its so hard really..Do you have digestproblems (sometimes constipation)and foodintolerances too? I really tried everything the last 5 years, but nothing helps really..For me it is a nightmare..And you what you are planing to do? I think I will do the relocation..Because it ruins my life, not able to work as a nurse and so on.

Thank you for your kind words, hug Simone
