Vomiting in my sleep??



Recommended Posts

I am one and a half years out from my band....Very happy with my results.. but in the past couple months I have some episodes with vomiting in my sleep. I thought maybe it was my GERD, I do take omeprazole daily and I have stopped eating or drinking at least 4 hours before I go to sleep. Do i needto take my meds twice aday or any other suggestions??

My friend at work is almost a year out from hers and she started doing this around two weeks ago. Anyways, she finally went to the doctor and he had to unfill her a good bit and said her band had tightened up on its own. So he took out a couple of cc's from her band and gave her less restriction so her stomach could have a rest he said. I am still new at this but i know my friend said after he did that she has not done it since. Wish you the best of luck.

Call your doctor ASAP! I used to stop breathing and have this happen before I found out that I have Obstructive sleep Apnea.

My doctor said this is a sign that you're too tight and that it needs urgent attention. Hope you feel better soon!

      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?
