Anyone else have a runny nose when full?



Recommended Posts

Do any of you sleeve buddies get a runny nose when you eat and get full or nearly get full? Every time I sit down to eat I have to have plenty of napkins handy. After eating about 2-3 oz. my nose begins to run. I do not have allergies and have no cold right now. I just started noticing this about a month ago when I started on more solid foods. I have watched this and realize that it is not just coincidental. It happens every meal that I take in 3-4 oz. of solid food.

Let me hear from you if you are the same. And--can anyone explain this? What does my nose have to do to with my sleeve?

I thought I was the only one. My nose runs even if I'm full on liquids. It's not so bad though I'm getting used to it.

It's really funny, but if I take one bite too many, I sneeze like crazy!!!!!

My nose started running the day of surgery and has not stopped since. It has slowed down recently, and I am noticing that I now get sort of hungry. Maybe my nose thought I was full for a month!

My nose runs as well. I am not sure why but know that it is my full signal. Once it starts running I can't eat anymore.

Add me to the list. I’m starting my 6th month soon and it has been going on for most of myjourney.

When I eat too much – I have to blow my noise many times.Like right now. I just had a dense piece of raise bread toast followed by a cupof coffee - too close to eating and I had to blow my noise ..I also get a coldchill. Both last for about 15 – 20 minutes then I am fine. Good to see it’s notjust me

Today I was eating some chicken and noodles and I started feeling too full and my nose began to leak a very thin mucus that had the consistency of Water. It's so thin and watery that sniffing it back up doesn't help and it refuses to dry on it's own. (I know, I know. Disgusting) If I don't dash for a tissue, it'll run out my nose and down my face (Double disgusting)

From what I've read on the forums, that seems to be a pretty common thing. Unfortunately I'm not sure if it applies to me or not because my nose runs at random throughout the day, especially when I bend my head.

This started happening about 2 years before I had my surgery. My dad is the same way. I've been told it's allergies, but I'm not one to do a lot of sneezing, have itchy eyes, hives, etc.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
