Constant Diarrhea

I had a Lap Nissen done on February 6th and I have had constant diarrhea since and it is especially worse after I eat?  Is this common and if so for how long?

Hi Castle19868,
It is not very common following lap fundoplication.
It could be due to dumping syndrome or damage to vagus nerve.
You need to consult your gastro regarding further management.
