Can't Keep Liquids Down



Recommended Posts

I had surgery 16 months ago. I have had a lot of success. My concern is that for the past 2-3 weeks I have days where i can't eat anything solid. For the past week I can't even keeps liquids down. I seem to throw everything up. I have heart burn like I have never had before. At my last visit, I did not get filled and my prior visit I had Fluid removed. I am only at 2cc. I go to the dr on Tuesday. Any ideas on what my problem may be? I have had such success that I hate thought of losing fluid or getting it removed.

If you're having trouble keeping liquids down, you need to either go to the ER or see your doctor as soon as possible. Dehydration occurs quite quickly and IS NOT PLEASANT!!!!!

I also have that problem from time to time.you do need to see your dr. Mine seems to happen when I have a lot of stress..my dr told me to drink in sips and make sure I drink protien shakes. But your dr may have another suggestion or may want to send you to make sure you didn't slip.

I would be going into your doctor immediately and demanding a barium swallow to have your band checked. Those are all the classic signs of being too tight, but being as you have already have some removed and so little in the band, I fear a slip.

The golden rule is if u cannot keep liquids down that needs a doctor visit to sort it out, worst case scenario is a slip maybe or more normally you are internally swollen from being stuck, either way its a doctors visit that is needed .. good luck ..

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
