I was in the hospital for one night only and straight after the procedure, I noticed that I was able to lie down without belching, which was incredible. Now it has been four weeks since the keyhole surgery, and my life has changed dramatically for the better. I no longer belch or regurgitate after eating or sipping water and I can finally have a good night’s sleep and take naps during the day. I am off PPIs and eating a variety of soft foods, within another 2 weeks I will be back on a normal diet. I have no problems with swallowing or burping, and the initial bloating is getting better. This procedure has changed my life and I am extremely thankful to Mr Jenkinson, who showed compassion, understood my symptoms and booked me in as soon as he was able. I have no hesitation in recommending the Nissen Fundoplication to others for whom PPIs are no longer effective and I am delighted with the outcome for myself.
