A member asked:
Is it normal to get occasional regurgitation and heartburn post nissen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not unusual: I don't know if i would call it "normal" but occasional episodes are common. Discuss with your surgeon your specific concern, because sometimes this can be associated with barrett's esophagus.
