Abdominoplasty 5 yrs ago. Felt like tightest pair of spanx and hard to deep breathe- uncomfortable!! Developed upper abd bulge looked strange. Tightness and bulge ever present. lower abdomen is tight I am5’7” 160lbs. I’ve developed chronic gerd. On endoscopy - Barrets esophagus with hiatal hernia due to increased intraabd pressure. now on Prilosec 20-40 mg (side effects)still with cascade of symptoms. I’m at inc risk for esoph ca as a result of all this. none was discussed prior to surgery.
