Want to burp, feel air bubble, it won't come out, then hiccups, very painful
Lela's New Life replied to gwbicster's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think that might just be "frothing". I had the first week (i'm 4 weeks post-op) but it didn't make me throw up. When ever I need to burp but can't I always sit forward with my elbows/forearms on my knees and that helps SOOOO much! Hope you're feeling better. -

Hello everyone! I'm another Queens resident/native I got sleeved on 5/23/17 at Lenox Hill Hospital with Dr. Yatco ( him). HW 241SW 230CW 219 Currently pushing through the dreadful 3 week stall. *sigh* -

BTW, I just found this old article from a previous thread that sheds some light on the stall. https://www.dsfacts.com/weight-loss-stall-or-plateau.php -

Nice, I'm a Queens girl! -
Thanks for this!! I was wondering if the two procedures could be done together. I got approved a few weeks ago and am scheduled for May 23rd. I've suffered from GERD for 10+ years, off and on but the last 2+ years the pain made me question if it was something else.. and after explaining the symptoms to my nutritionist she suggested it might be my gallbladder. The pain has just progressed and I've even had clay like stool. I'm having an endoscopy on Thursday and will request my gallbladder be checked as well... hopefully it can all be cleared before May 23rd!!
