starting to get nervous



Recommended Posts

Started last weekend with heartburn , turned into a few days of vomiting and not being able to eat now i can do scrambled eggs and yogurt but nothing with any more texture than that-

dehydrated because i have to drink super slow.. getting scared and mad and upset.

unfill?? Slippage? what the heck is going on.. had a fill last wed.. did fine for 2 days after.. now this..going to have to go back tot he dr next week,, i so dont want them to drain the band,, i am down 68lbs!

granted 6-7 lb is from the past week of being sick and not eating but still...

ughh.. :frown:

i am burping up foam.. spitting out slime and saliva eveytime i try to eat something beyond yogurt and i swear its starting to affect my brain lol my coordination is off,, my spelling sucks more than usual,,, damn it to hell.

Call your doctor. Don't wait until it turns into an emergency. He should have some kind of answering service. Don't delay...I would call. Best wishes!!!

Sounds like you need an unfill. I doubt your band slipped, since you just had a fill and are keeping some things down. You probably have some swelling, it can take a day or two for that to happen. I would call your doc. for sure. In the meantime maybe stick to liquids (protien shakes and water). Best wishes, keep us posted on how your doing.

Call now before it gets too bad, I had to have a slight unfill(.1) one time after a fill, it was 10 days later! But just .1 helped so much! The longer you wait, the more they are going to need to take out because of dehydration. Keep me updated!

      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.
