Help - Blood in my mouth??



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone. I get my sleeve for about 9 weeks ago. Everything was fine until today.

I wake up with blood taste in my mouth. When I spit it came blood like when you are at the dentist.

I eat omeprazol for 3 month. Not eating for about 6 weeks now.

I dont eat spicy food or carboneted drinks.

Is there anyone have like this or can you give me some advise PLEASE???

Go to the doctor, perhaps even the emergency room. Unless you bit your lip or cut a gum you may have serious bleeding in your stomach or esophagus,

Stomach acid on an empty stomach may have caused an ulcer. Go to the E.R.,and be SURE to tell them that you were sleeved. That's veranty import

Good luck,

Cinderella.

I would get it checked out asap.. I had a similar thing happen to me last night only I was awake when I started tasting it. I got sick and up came dark blood. I took a hot bath to calm myself down and went to bed. First thing this morning I called my doctor to find out what I needed to do.. They explained to me that it is sometimes normal to have blood come up, and not to panic. The only time they worry about it is if there's ALOT of it.. If you are really worried about it don't hesitate go to the doctor or ER asap. You don't want to take any chances of having a leak or damage to your stomach. P.S. stomach acid can sometimes leave that bloody taste in your mouth.

Thank you all. Very kind of you to write to me. I have an gastroscopy today and everything seems to be ok.

I get omeprazol for stomach acid and doc told me to have less than usually coffee.< /p>

Omeprazol helped me very much. I have been at doc today too. He told me to write my eating times for stomach

acid is not good if I goes without food for many hours. But the omeprazol helps. today I feel normal again.

Thanks all.

(I hope you understand that I cant english very well but I try to learn more) :)))

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
