Throwing up Normal?



Recommended Posts

Im a year out and i throw out almost every time i eat, i was getting to where i could eat probly too much of some foods and hadn't lost any weight for a while so i went in for a fill, i cant even hold Water down now, i have been throwing up all day, this is the second time i let him fill me too much, i don't know what sensation to look for when getting a fill to know when it is right. And is it normal to throw up?:confused:

Not normal at all to throw up. As a matter of fact it can lead to problems, such as a slip.

When going in for a fill does your dr have you drink to make sure you aren't too tight? If your doc does not do fills under scope, and barium swallow, maybe you want to take a Protein Shake with you so he can put some fill in, then you take a drink, if it goes down easy your good, if it backs up and won't go down, you will know it, and he can take a little out.

If you can not keep anything down, I would go in for a slight unfill.

Come on you have been at this a year. you know what is going on here. Not loosing weight? eating too much of some foods that are slider foods? my guess? and vomiting? Too Tight to in the band to adjust for the slider foods your eating. then when you do eat real food you vomit. Careful here this leads to problems.

I AM NOT SAYING THIS IS YOU!!! IT WAS ME. I HAD TO RE-BOUND AND TURN IT AROUND AND I DID. i see you in me. catch it now before you have a real issue..

Just trying to help

Call your doctor right away!! You need a bit of an un-fill. If you wait, they may have to do a total unfill for a while -- or your band could slip! This needs immediate medical attention. Seriously, don't put it off. I am surprised that you did not know this already, since you are a year out.

I hope it goes well!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
