Stomache Removal for Girds?

Stomache Removal for Girds?

Posted By Bina on October 13, 1998 at 17:10:47:







My fiance's mother was diagnosed with reflux and girds, and her physicians have recomended she have her stomache removed. Is this the best course of action...I understood this disorder to be one of occasional flare ups and one that could be controlled with medication.  She says that she is on a steady diet of Ensure and if she eats, she immediately vomits...This issue is of much concern to me and I recomended a second opinion...Is it customary to remove the entire stomach...please help...Thank you, Bina
