Help with Heartburn
KatallacStrong replied to KatallacStrong's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you! I appreciate your input as a fellow sleever and an RN. Last night I woke up twice because of this and it was awful so I think I am goin to have to get some Tums; it makes me feel better knowing others have tried it too in urgent situations. I haven’t tried hot lemon water because my diet guidelines said no citrus for 2-3 mo but I could totally incorporate it once that time comes. I am about 3 weeks our now so it seems I am following in your footsteps with this. I will talk to my husband about lifting the head of the bed as well; my mother had suggested that too. Thanks again!!! -

Help with Heartburn

Thank you! If I was a bit further out I would totally try this but I’m not supposed to have any citrus for 3 months. I’m just so torn on what would be my best option; tums, Zantac, Pepcid, pepto, etc. I’m going to have to get something because this is awful 😔 -

So today is 2 weeks exactly since surgery (VSG) and yesterday afternoon I started to get serious heartburn. I’ve never had heartburn pre-op but this is pretty bad. I read that Tums (Calcium Carbonate) May cause kidney stones so we should stay away from them; they may also interfere with the calcium (citrate) we take as a supplement. May this be true or not it’s completely freaked me out so now idk what I can and cannot take. I called my surgeon this morning but Mo days are his surgery days (duh! Lol I had my surgery on a Monday) and his staff will get in touch with him tomorrow I regards to this issue and let me know what I can take for immediate relief. He does have my taking a form of Protonix, but that’s not immediate relief (like a Tums would be) like I’m looking for. I know it’s a very common side effect, but I slept sitting up last night and would really like to avoid that tonight. Any thoughts or ideas would be GREATLY appreciated. Today was my first day back to work and will little sleep from having to be upright sucked big time 😔

I’m wrapping up Day 2 of 7 of my pre-op [clear] liquid diet. Are you able to have protein shakes? I feel like that’d make a world of difference for me -
