Swelling. Carbonation?



Recommended Posts

Hi. Any feedback is appreciated. I am experiencing swelling on stomach surface. A little pain, but not serious. I do not have a fever, so am thinking it is not infection.

Have not been overeating and have not thrown up at all. Currently, can eat and drink, nothing is getting caught. Has anyone had the swelling symptoms before? Do you know what caused it. I did have 3 vodka tonics last night. I learned that tonic Water is carbonated. In any event, probably less than 12 oz for the whole night? I really don't think that is it, but wanted to see if this has happened to anyone else.

Look forward to and appreciate your response.

Thanks

I do not drink I will tell you I think that it is gas. It is too earlly to be drinking in this Process it should go away in a couple of days, but you should call your Doctors office and see what they say about drinking? Empty calories

pretty much if it has bubbles when you pour it , it's carbonated, my dr told me not to drink until after my 1st adjustment so the band has time to heal .

      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.
