Prolapse...any advise or stories please!



Recommended Posts

I had an upper GI done yesterday because I had thrown up quite forcefully a few weeks ago and haven't felt the same ever since. I had a little pain when I would first drink in the morning and food was coming back up hours after I would eat. I also was having reflux at night. I found out today that I had a small prolapse and now I'm on stage 3 again for 6 weeks then going for another Upper GI and if it hasn't improved then my band needs to be removed. Has anyone had this happen or know about it? Did the liquid diet work? I know everyone is different but I'm really nervous about this prolapse. I'm worried about the damage it may be causing right now and I'm also worried about having to go through another surgery for it to be removed, I was told the removal can be more dangerous than the original surgery because if the scar tissue that is around the band. I would be grateful for any advise on this, Thanks.

Oh no, I'm so very sorry. I've vomited a couple times since surgery and every time I'm terrified of exactly this happening.

Did your doctor completely unfill your band? I've read numerous stories of the band being unfilled and the slip correcting itself.

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Thanks Mis! Yes he did unfill my band. I was just trying to edit that post to put that in but I'm not so good with that stuff lol. I really hope that this will work. I'm going to be one grumpy hungry girl for 6 weeks!

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.
