GI post GB: First make certain it is not biliary reflux. It is is acid reflux problems you may start with taking more prilosec, dont wear constricting garments. Eat slowly, chew you food well and don/t gulp beverages with your meals. Don't eat after 7pm and watch what you eat. You may need a digestant but let a GI specialist decide that after checking you.L it is common to have an incompetant ge valve affilil.
