I cough everytime I eat

I'm 5 months post-op and I have noticed that for the last month or two, I've been coughing everytime I eat. Alot of the time I throw up when I cough. I don't have a cold. It only happens while I'm eating. Is anyone else experiencing this and if so, what is causing it?

Sounds like acid reflux. Are you on a PPI? I always coughed when I ate before I knew I had reflux, but that was before surgery. Not sure what else it could be.

sounds like classic acid reflux. I had it before my op, and it worsened greatly for about 2 months after. my doc rx'd a liquid ulcer medication for 2 weeks. i haven't had it since! i'd give 'em a call. good luck!

Up until I was 10 weeks out, I opened a Omeprazole capsule in a small amount of Water. Just recently I missed a day and was very uncomfortable with acid reflux. From what I understand a PPI is needed for quite awhile as to the stomach making a normal amount of acid for a much smaller stomach and helps with the healing. Good luck.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
