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) :)))

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
