Weird question/situation



Recommended Posts

Since I've transitioned to eating normal food, I've had a couple of instances where I will burp little pieces of food up hours, like 6-8 hours, after I've eaten.

For examples:

I can eat the inside of a small chicken eggroll in the afternoon around 1pm, then eat dinner around 7, and somewhere around 9pm, I'll burp up a bit of the cabbage from the eggroll. It's weird, and to be honest pretty gross.

I've had some Wendy's chili which has celery and onions, and those came back up hours later as well.

I'll eat some tuna with pickle bits, chopped up tiny, and then 3-4 hours later a piece of the pickle will come completely undigested.

It's happened with various Beans. I quit eating corn after one attempt because that was disgusting.

Now, what's even more strange. I can eat Mexican food especially chicken fajitas with the sauteed onions, and have zero ill effects. I can eat guacamole without any of the chunks of tomatoes and onions (I hate tomatoes and raw onions).

I don't know if it's not chewing well enough, or slow motility in my sleeve. I drink about 30 - 45 minutes after eating, and I drink right up to the time my first bite hits my mouth. I do chew, chew, chew, but this happens sometimes with various foods.

Any ideas, suggestions or advice?

I can't figure that one out, Tiff. Cabbage from lunch coming up after supper....did you have some cabbage for supper too? Seems like lunch should be gone after 2 hours. ???

It is super weird. It's like some foods hide out in my tummy, and then come up later.

For dinner after the eggroll, I actually had some mac-n-cheese. None of it came up.

I have had that too, Tiffy. I feel fine; it's not like when I get the slimes. And just little chunks, nothing major. Beans are no good for me, nor celery. Onions are iffy. Thicker breads? No way, period. I am sure it is just of stomachs now have little hidden pockets and some of the more course materials get caught, then work their way back up. I have an appointment on Tuesday and was going to ask about the burping up of stuff anyway. Will pass on what I find out.

Thanks Bob for asking. My surgeon just deployed to the sandbox for 6 months, and I don't have a follow-up until December.

It's the weirdest thing I've ever had happen. I don't get a sensation that anything is going to come up nor does it feel like when I don't chew well enough followed by a bit of sliminess. It's just so weird to explain. It's like I'll take a drink of Water, then BAM a tiny burp with a hitchhiker pickle piece.

I'll keep up with this thread to see what your doc says could be the cause.

      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?
