Hiatal Hernia Repair & LINX to Treat Reflux Animation
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 окт 2024
- This animation describes how the LINX surgery along with hiatal hernia repair works to stop reflux. After hiatal hernia repair, a ring of magnetic beads (LINX) are placed around the lower esophageal sphincter. Food and liquids can easily pass into the stomach with swallow, but LINX prevents stomach acid, bile, and digestive enzymes from refluxing back into the esophagus.

I had this device implanted 2 years. Very successful. No more gerd.
Hi, did you had any side effects? Are there any risks?
@@maxuser1221 I did not experience any issues. As for risks, I was told they were minimal if I followed my doctors orders.
@@mran7042 no strange feelings when you swollow? - just wanted to check
I heard that from another video- so I wanted to check.
@@maxuser1221 no. But I had to eat something every 2-3 hours during the first few weeks after surgery to “exercise “ the Linx device. And even today I need to make sure I thoroughly chew certain hard foods like carrots before I swallow. I definitely would do it all again. Good luck.
@@mran7042 thanks for sharing
Synergy wellness for haital hernia exercise is the BEST !
What kind of exercise is good for hiatal hernia
I had that surgery done 4 years ago. Not a sign of Gord since.
Really your saying after surgery no more of hh and this magnet will be their forever
What if magnet gets pulled out by some outer force? Aren't you afraid of that
@@Leekmabols_hard
Or if they don’t open to let food go in stomach, you will choke to death. A horrible way to die. I don’t trust these magnets
@@Leekmabols_hard1.How2.Is Titanium magnet,is made to have very weak atraction
Guys if you think you have a hiatal hernia, you should do surgery right away, I have now had mine for over 7 years and it just gets worst, so bad that it now gives me mini strokes, and it also has affected my lungs in feeling like I sometimes can’t breathe properly. Don’t wait for surgery, or if you don’t want surgery, you need to be in perfect shape, as the more fat you have in the stomach, the worst it is. It’s horrible, I suffer everyday, and am now waiting to get my surgery .
Palpitations after eating heavy, and stomach heaviness when you lie down ? I’m 25 I lift heavy and I’m going through same. 🥲
Hey mate. think i am going through the exact condition. been waiting for 2 years for surgeon, wait list for a call back. seems like i have to contact surgeon myself. BTW how did you go with your surgeory, hoping you are feeling better now
@@yanzzah I went through 2d echo and ecg everything is normal.
And also went through endoscopy. No signs of hiatal hernia. Stomach lining is clean af. Everything is clear. What could be reason 🥲🥲 Daily I’m having 2 skipped beats atleast when I’m bloated 😢😢😢
@@yanzzah i cancelled my surgery as i lwent from 200 pounds to 159 pounds and feel much better now, surgery is always dangerous and can cause more harm then good
@@ShoOterEhce11my husband is very thin and he has the biggest form of hiatal hernia 4.0.It affects his life and needs to get the surgery immediately.
Nice video discription
May I know how much is the Linx Surgery? I've been suffering reflux for more than a decade now. Please help me. 😥
Is this a new procedure? I mean the mesh. Not the lynx.
Before it was only funduplication. Tying the stomach around itself at the top. Is this mesh a new break through?
And what about the chip regulating the electricity of the opening/closing?
On Netflix now .. must see if you’re considering a upcoming surgery. I was convinced that I was going with mesh for my up coming hiatal hernia procedure.. I’m positive that I will not be going that route. After watching this docu and seeing what J&J had done in the name of $$$ as will as others I won’t be going with lynx either. They have their grubby poop stained hand in that one too.
Yeah but the problem with mesh and lynx are possible complications. I was told that my gastroenterologist that the lynx complications can be slipping of the device, some have broken while in the body and the other is difficulty swallowing food. Not being able to comfortably swallow my food or water is a deal breaker. Mesh adhering to tissue and possibly cause immune desases is another. Lots to thing about here.
@Julia Joseph sorry for the long delay. The documentary is called The Bleeding edge. It’s quite a eye opener on devices like the mesh and replacement joints. Any device introduced into our bodies come with dangerous and life altering side effects.
@Julia Joseph it’s called The Bleeding Edge.
Thank you Alfonso. I will watch it.
How long you have to be out of work?
Sometimes when I eat it hurts so bad ( a squeeze pain in my chest.) as if the food is stuck and nothing will go down even spit. I have to stop and walk around until it passes. Does that mean I have a Hiatal hernia?
Yes, it sounds like you do have one Katy. Please see a gastroenterologist for an endoscopy/colonoscopy procedure. This will solve the root of the problem. I’m currently undergoing studies on my esophagus at the moment to determine if I need the hiatal hernia repair.
You may also have stasis, which is when the food gets stuck (until the next swallow pushes it down) or achalasia. An esophogram (aka barium swallow) will give you more information about all three possibilities. Ask your PCP
After hiatus hernia surgery can i go to gym after 6 months?..
You can go to gym again after 2 months
The link 🔗 surgery did NOT help at all and omoprozole did not help at all but haital hernia exercise and water exercise for haital hernia is helping me little bit now 🙏
Thanks for the info Marie! Could you be a little more explicit about what hiatal hernias exercises you're doing?
Do you need to get Linx for hiatal hernia ? If you don’t have reflux ? Or can you just pull down the stomach stitch up the hole & put mesh over it ? What types of procedure are there for a hiatal hernia ?
It deoends on your severity of reflux. Usually hiatal hernia repair wont be enough, once LES has been damaged it wont fix itself
Does the Linx stay in the for the rest of your life? And if so can i continue boxing or contact sports?
Anyone with large hiatal hernia and iron deficiency?
Yes. It was the iron deficiency that alerted my doctors.
@@jeremybraswell2063 my mom has huge hiatal hernia
@katmeg1117.... what's your mom's condition now.....is she totally fine
Yes me plus weight loss
Yes awful feel so ill.
Messed life up,
این حلقه linx تو ایران نیست وجراحان ایران هنوز اموزش این کارو ندیدن متاسفانه
Haital hernia exercise and water exercise for haital hernia is the only thing and diet for like ulcer diet only thing that works 🙏
What do you mean by water exercise ? Interested
I was told they could do this on me but I would never be able to vomit again and it would be awful. Is this true?
I was told this too
@@michaelknight2721 I. Am reading a book called the Acid watcher and trying to follow that diet to try and help RN
Nope nope nope don’t do it. Already it is very uncomfortable not to burp and how much more not to vomit.
@@Sterfillah how long has it been since your surgery?
I have not done surgery, but I watched a documentary called The bleeding edge. The mesh thing is a no no no . I have seen ppl complain about the Linx and the electrical stimulator. For now I am sticking to life style change
Dr's in WI have stopped this procedure.
Why? I just talked to a doctor near Oshkosh, they are still doing it.
@@00_UU No one around here.
Yeah, not true.
That is a false statement, as others have also pointed out. I know St. Vincents in Green Bay does it, Western Wisconsin Health Care in Baldwin WI is where I had it done.
I don't know what to do i have a bad breath from hernia hiatale
It is most likely h.pylori inside your stomach. Hernia itself does not cause bad breath.
It can cause bad breath by allowing acid to travel to the mouth. Acid itself smells bad when combined with saliva @@00_UU
Iam a haitus hernia patient pls help me 😭 last 4 years I couldn't eat in easy way
Yabi can't even begin to swallow food unless I use water with every bite

Cuanto dinero sale
Anyone had LINX procedure? Can you please comment if it helped you?
Yes had it 3 three years ago. I’m afraid my hernia maybe back. I having issues with reflux again. I’m gonna be following up with my surgeon soon.
@@Iceman-xe7jo then what is the point of surgery if it comes back?
@@justtubingby8342 Idk. What do you think?
Do your homework on all procedures offered. I due to go to surgery soon. I began investigating procedures and devices and came across on how sloppy the FDA process is for allowing this stuff to get on the market. From birth control devices and anything implanted in our body. Metal can cause poisoning and mesh is absorbed by out tissues causing pain and possibly deaths. Cobalt metals breakdown and dissolve. I’m seriously considering stitches. Lots to think about. Please look up the crap that Johnson and Johnson is pushing on the race for $$$! The might buck. I urge you to watch Netflix Bleeding Edge !
@@alfonsoalvarez5349 thank you. Are you getting Linx procedure? Please comment on the results
Magnets? 😟
Yeah !! Kinda stupid right. We tell babies not to put mags in their little mouths and here we do it willingly. What are the metals used ?? Depuy used cobalt in hips , knees, and shoulders and hurt people real bad. That crap breaks down and leachs metals that destroy pure immune system. Watch the bleeding edge on Netflix. That’s some bad shit. Then research lynx and the mesh.
I had a Type IV paraesophageal hernia that went undiagnosed for several years. The main tip off was that Cameron's erosions in my stomach kept causing severe anemia. Later it got so I could not keep a lot of food down. I knew I did not want the standard Nissan Fundoplication procedure due to the various issues that result from that and decided to go with the LINX procedure. The surgeon did NOT use mesh, I have a prescription for Ondanstran if I feel any nausea coming on. While I can vomit with the Linx device, the surgeon said the diaphragm tissue is pretty fragile and he doesn't want me wretching or throwing up as it could cause a tear. It's coming up on just 2 months since I had the surgery. Gas is still something of an issue and probably always will be. My biggest problem is finding food that agrees with me, various meats, soups, etc that I liked before just don't seem to sit well. But as far as the LINX device, I can't really notice it's there. I have to eat a little slower, but overall I'm satisfied at this point. I know Alfonso Alvarez has nothing good to say about it, but I heard from a few people who had the LINX and were happy. I've already got metal plates in me from an accident several years ago. I don't know what babies putting magnets in their mouths has to do with the procedure. This device isn't swallowed and it goes around the outside of the esophagus. Options are fairly limited as to what can be done and I did what I felt was the better option.
@@barbarashannon7548 , are foods and drinks that were not allowed before like sauted dishes, fried foods, milk ok after the linx surgery?
@@davebalanding At 5 months out, I'm eating and drinking everything I did before. I understand some people need to avoid carbonated beverages, but they don't bother me at all. I love milk and dairy products and continue to eat them. Fried foods, spicy, sauteed, it all works now. I will have an occasional day where I have a little more gas. I've found that a small piece of candied ginger will usually help that problem. At the time I had the surgery the nutritionist said I would have to learn to eat a lot slower and chew everything up really well too. Sometimes when eating, I realize I'm not slowing down though and it doesn't bother me. And once in a while I will get hiccups, about 4-5 in a row shortly after starting a meal. Pause for a few minutes and swallow a couple times and it goes away. Overall I am very happy with the results of the Linx procedure.
@@barbarashannon7548 I see. What year did you have the linx? I will get a second opinion on this as my doctor would not allow me to undergo surgery.
Eat lots of protein to build muscle 💪 and do diaphragm exercise to strengthen it
