I had gastric gastric bypass surgery in 2003 & have been diagnosed with several related problems. Every day, for most of the day, my voice is extremely, to the point in which people as me if I m sick. I recently had an Upper GI & it looked as though was normal. I would like to know why I m developing this hoarseness everyday. I clear my throat constantly have even take sinus/allergy tablets to no avail. My Gastroenterologist put me on Nexium for an indefinite period of time. Also, after eating dinner (my largest meal of the day, the food I consume just sits on top of my stomach. Most of the time, the food is still sitting on top of my stomach the next morning,
