The doc who did endo and found the problem should have RXed something. So take that. If not -avoid alcohol, spicy food, coffee, tea, very hot or very cold fluids, chew food well and use things like maaalox / pepto bismal 15- 20 mts before eating till you are better then resume normal If not better see a Gastro. You dont have to have another procedure unless your symptoms persist. Hope you feel b
