Prob. unrelated: I usually avoid a "definite Yes, or No" answer... I do this to remind myself few things in this world are "impossible". Gastritis (inflamation/irritation) of the stomach lining, and gastric reflux, are two very commonly seen abnormalities which are often mild. Though it's not impossible to damage a nerve during surgery, it's not "common" and the other 2 abnormalities are fairly common.
