Complications from fundoplication

Complications from fundoplication

I had a half wrap fudoplication surgery Feb.08 and I feel as bad now as I did before the surgery. I am nauseated and vomiting, dumping constantly. I went on disability in April for this. I have to be near a restroom all the time. I have problems swallowing food or drink. It feels like a boot is coming up my throat. Pain in my chest. I make myself throw up to get relief. Sometimes it is coming out of both ends at the same time or I will dry heave for hours. I have seen 3 GI doctors. Been back to the original surgeon who promply told me his surgery was successful and I basically have to live with this! I will not except this! I am 39 yrs. old. I have had every PH study known to man and they did find there is some acid passing up esophagus. I have had my esophagus stretched 3 times. No luck. One doctor told me after a procedure that he thought my wrap was loose. My surgeon said he did half wrap becasue i had problems swallowing. I am going to see another surgeon tomorrow who deals with complications after this procedure. I hope he can tell me he can help me. I am miserable and just want some relief.
