[Part 2] Can't Stop Spitting



Recommended Posts

So, as you guys requested. Went to the hospital for an IV, ended up with a 3 night stay, and no results as to why liquids and foods make me throw up or gag.

Surgeon thinks I irritated my walls and maybe was swollen at the time of sickness but now, I can keep liquids down.

They did a upper GI test and watched liquid flow from mouth to bowels with no clog or leak. Thats good.

Only problem?

A clear liquid under my tounge keeps forming and forming and forming. Does not stop. It's disgusting and despite trying not to be nauseasious if I swallow it, my stomach gets irritated.

Only been on PPI for 4 days. Once again, I'm sick of them telling me there's nothing wrong with me. What could cause the spitting ?

As per my last thread. Im Hydrated and using the bath room every 3 hrs.

try drinking your liquids warm - see if that cuts down on it?

You are salivating like that because your body is telling you that it needs food. Can you request a feeding tube unti they discover what the problem is?

Did you know four doctors couldn't tell me that?

Are you serious?

I will demand that they give me my mushy diet. So I can eat something. I have not had food in two weeks.

Surgery was in 12.12.11

I love you. I seriously do. I hope you're right. I'll post back after they are done treating me like ****.

      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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
