Hello
i I had an oesophagetomy in May 2024 and my stage 3 cancer was successfully removed but I have spent nearly every month in and out of hospital following night time reflux ( usually around 3 am) I take lansoprazole and gaviscon to help but I feel I am struggling I still have my jejonostomy feeding tube which I feed during the day to reduce the risk of aspiration but I eat orally also but try not to eat after 6/7pm I am also asthmatic and diabetic type 2 but wanted to know does it really get better ?
