My wife had the hiatal hernia surgery by laparoscope three weeks ago, and she came out of the surgery very well. While she's not yet eating steak, she's eating most anything else, including ice cream which triggered her reflux.
This is a surgery that many physicians don't understand or suggest. But it's because they are ignorant on the technique.
She's getting better every day, and is very satisfied she had the surgery. She's yet to have any reflux of any kind that previously absolutely scared her to death. If she doesn't ever have to go through reflux caused pneumonia again, this surgery could be a lifesaver for her. If you have reflux, be sure to go to a really good endodontist.
Bamaman, how big was the hiatal hernia? My husband had an endoscopy yesterday in Atlanta by a former Mayo Clinic surgeon. He said DH's hernia was very small. We'll meet with him in a week or two after he compiles data from the Bravo ph test, but I'm wondering if surgery might be recommended for a such a small hiatal hernia.
