Gagging/Dry heaves??

my daughter has a Nissen Fundoplication and a MicKey button feeding tube. She has cycles of gagging/dry heaves. For several days- a week she will be fine,no gagging. But then she will have several days of severe gagging. She gags so hard she drops her heart rate. Her doctors have no clue except the fact that the Nissen Fundoplication can cause gagging/ dry heaves. Has anyone else dealt with this? Did your child outgrow it? What can be done to help? Any input would be great. thanks.

Update:

She just turned one. Has had the Nissen/g-tube since 2 months old.

    I have worked with a few kids who had a Nissen and a G button and they did not have this problem. How old is your child and how long has she had the nissen/g button? Hopefully since the kids I've cared for with no problems were 5-6 years old your daughter will grow out of it.
