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) :)))

      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.
