My mentor and my inspiration ❤️ I’m so happy you are feeling better Anna !! Miss you loads - Jeeb
I’m 8 weeks post op having the Linx done and I’m having bad bad pain from chest through back and no test shows anything going on with my gallbladder. I’d like to know if anyone else had problems and did it get better or worse. ❤
Hi Ms Anna, how are you doing now. I think more than 3 years have passed after your linx operation. What is your present feeling. I am talking to have such operation for my son. Will be grateful if you reply. I m from Bangladesh, a country beside India. Take care 🙂
How are you doing today with the acid reflux symptoms, are they still present or are they gone? I have suffered for 9 years with GERD and Im agoraphobic because it makes my sensory processing disorder worse, im on the autism spectrum and ADHD which seems to have a correlation between the 2, I have wanted surgery desperately but I'm afraid of the cost and I fear just going to the doctor, 7 years ago I had an endoscopy and biopsy of my esophagus and stomach and the dreaded answer came back from the gastro enterologist that my stomach looked fine and no scaring of my esophagus but I was hoping he would find a problem so I could have surgery to put me out of suffering, the cost of the test was $2500 that I had to pay out of pocket so I gave up with test and figured I just have to be miserable the rest of my life, I was 26 when I got GERD, I feel pain all the time and standing up after a meal doesn't even help, I'll get bloating indigestion and acid reflux.
How much linx surgery cost..?
RefluxUK works at several hospital locations around the UK . Please feel free to contact us at RefluxUk on refluxuk.com/contact/ if you would like any further information.
Can you smoke after linx surgery
Yes you can, but as I am sure you are aware its much better for your health not to!
I feel like this video was made for doctor promotion. Not enough evidence for me to have this operation done!
Our aim at RefluxUK is to be as informative as we can on the many complex and different topics surrounding reflux.

@@Refluxuk what are the risks of metal erosion from the beads into the esophagus?
Also, do you envisage there being other surgeries/procedures in the future? I doubt everybody wants to rely on a foreign device to work for 50+ years without fail. Why can't donor tissue be sewn around the LES to strengthen it?
@@Jamie-kf2vf hey have you done the surgery?
I am still shocked for how the science reaches nowadays while a trivial breakthrough to save millions of people still not found out ....
Just give the idea to the students of UK Universities, for the all interdisciplinaries and I am sure of ingenious one will find a breakthrough that can save our lives from the mess that we are living!!
The only thing that freaks me out about linx is that it can erode into esophagus but everything else seems good about it.
it also can harm the vagus nerve. absolute hell.
