Hi Everyone: I was sleeved years ago, and went well. 3 weeks ago my daughter who is special needs had to get sleeved. Long story. But she was doing great in hospital then week later started. They did sleeve and herina repair. She started with shoulder pain for almost week. got threw but in process went from drinking well to now nothing. She wants no food and or drinks. Been 2 times and fluids. perks her up for day but then right back. Now to point fighting with to even get a drink of water in her. And she has this dry nagging cough. That seems to be more and more. Sounds like going to throw up alot too. when does drink its like stuck and don't want to go down. Has anyone had this? Been back and fourth daily with doctors office but keep sending for more fluids. Any ideas what could be going on? Just wondering if anyone has had this? Getting very scard for her.

help failure and has any one had herina after
mesharpsteen posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi everyone: Well let me say I feel like a failure. I was sleeved on 2/29/2013 weight about 272 did ok in first 1/2 year. about 52 lbs. Then I lost conrol with eating and could eat just like before surgery. and I have gained about 20 back. Now they found a herina that I have and going to fix it this wednesday. Which is odd, they fixed one when they went in and did the sleeve. but seems have one again. Has anyone had this? or surgery after the sleeve. Not sure how I will feel know doc said liquids for about 6-8 weeks. hoping it will help get my small tummy back. but not sure that can happen. I talked with about a revision but want to wait for herina to be fixed and see if we can get me back on track. Are there others that have stuggled like this? and how did you get back on track? If you had suregery for herina how long on liguids? and How did you feel after? did it help with not wanting to eat so much? I need help, and guess reaching out. Please advise me . thank you so much.
