Okay, so I've been feeling nauseaus sometimes (I'm 13 days Post Op and still on the liquid diet). Its like all I have to do is burb. Sometimes, like just a few minutes ago, it got so bad I could have sworn I was going to throw up. I got up off the couch and that was it, I felt it coming. I got the hot/cold flash, the wet mouth, felt really pale and then .... I burped. Over and over and over again. It was like I was going through the motions of throwing up but it was just burps. What the heck is going on? This has happened to me two or three times before, but both were before I went back into the hossy for as gas bubble problem. I thought maybe it was PB'ing .. but I did some research and I dont think it is ... but is this dangerous? Why am I doing it? What can I do to NOT do it? Do I need to be taking gas meds still? Anti nausea meds all the time? Someone PLEASE help!! :wink2:

It sounds to me like what I consider PBing. What others call PB I consider throwing up. They are very different.

To avoid this you need to make sure you are taking very tiny bites, chewing well, eating slow, not eating one bite too many, and understanding what your soft signs are.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
