A member asked:
I have gas bloat syndrome as a result of a fundoplication probably 10 years ago. i am miserable with it. can i ever get my life back to normal?

Revision ?: Your complaint of gas bloat syndrome is pretty classical after a fundollication. While it doesn't happen all the time, it occurs about 10% of the time. If your symptoms are interfering with your life you should consider seeing a surgeon that specializes in this procedure to discuss the risks and benefits of taking the wrap down. Good luck.
