Discomfort Daily - not sure where to post



Recommended Posts

morning... ques for anyone- I wake up feeling full and have like a knot kind of feeling from my upper stomach all the way up to my throat. I'm uncomfortable daily, all day. Post op 4 weeks still can't do anything but liquids. Any thoughts?

I was very sensitive and had to progress very slow. I am still very sensitive to many types of foods and have to do things very slow after a fill.

Another thought is that you may have had a fill during surgery. Have you been back to see the surgeon? This would be one of those things you should really talk with him/her about. I would think you should be able to eat at least some mushy stuff at this point.

I would guess that you have had a follow up, if you did was this discussed? If not yet, you should see the doc soon. In the meantime try sipping hot tea in the A.M. I am tight in the morning and if I don't do this I have the feeling most of the day. Does doc still have you on liquids or that's all you can handle. If the later is the case you really need to contact the doc. Good Luck.

I agree with the others. Talk to your Dr. My guess is that you had a fill during surgery (active or passive fill, could be either). Ask your Dr. if s/he did a fill and if so ask them to take some out.

Some of us don't need much before we're in our green zone.

      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.
