1ST FILL and FOAMY



Recommended Posts

Hello

I had surgery 8/2 Had my first fill yesterday. Nurse said doc put too much in and she took some out. My sip of Water finally came out of my throat and chest, I could feel it. Didnt eat prior to and now about 1 tbl spoon of anything gets foamy in my pouch and I am spitting up. I cant even suck on 1/3 of a popcycle that doesnt foam and then gurgle up to the back of my throat. I assume from fill conversations that I am swollen ? I cant even sip a tablespoon of water without foaming. My only concern at this point 8 hrs out from a fill is I need Hydration and a tblspoon of water ever hr is probably not going to be enough. I will wait for a couple of days. My doctor says mushy food, but I serisouly dont see how I can even do mushy if I cant get down a thumbdrop of water. Any suggestions or comments are welcome.

If you can not even sip Water, you are too tight. Yes there is swelling but you should still be able to drink water

Thanks for your reply. I seem to be able to drink warm liquids without much problem of burpin up foam. Guess I will give the doc a call. I know I was definately too full yesterday after the first needle stick. Thanks so much. Will see how the day goes and what I can consume other than warm liquid.... (coffee) is working fine. . Took a sip of Water around 3:30 am and it kinda stuck and was burpy til about 4:45. I didnt sleep well.....

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
