Still Throwing Up :(

[SpaceyCasey 97]

Well I'm 2 month post op down 50 pounds I'm really happy with everything but I still throw up every day. I'm taking my acid reducer 2 times a day. It's not like the food gets stuck it goes down and then like 15 minutes later i cough up a slim ball sometimes with food sometimes not then it's over. I feel like I produce a lot of that slimy stuff and my stomach is filled with it. Is my stomach just super sensitive did anybody else go threw this and does it get better.

This does not sound good to me. Please call your doctor now.

I'm in constant communication with my doc he thinks it's acid just seeing if anybody else went threw this also.

Oh wow!!! Finally someone experiencing the same thing I go through. Its horrible. Im 6 weeks out and I vomit daily. I have an appointment next week. Lets see what they say. I have the exact same feeling. Even the smallest amount comes of about 30 minutes later

[SpaceyCasey 97]

I hope your appointment goes good please let me know what your doc says. I really don't think it's cause by acid but what do I know.

I've heard this called the slimes or frothing and have been told it is from eating too much or too fast.

I had a similar problem 2 weeks post op. I was put on prilosec twice a day (morning and night) and also pepcid in the afternoon. I also took reglan for a week, which really helped. Reglan is used to control nausea and excess stomach acid. Takes a couple of doses for it to fully work, but it helped a lot. I still have a bit of nausea but I dont throw up anymore. Doctors are sometimes hesitant to prescribe it because it can have serious sides effects the longer you use it. But, I think it is worth looking into.

Hmmm... thanks. Im willing to try anything.

Its not eating too much, or too fast, or not chewing well. Im talking like a teaspoon of yogurt and 15 minutes later, Im running to the restroom. So maybe it is nausea. Like spaceycasey mentioned, its like the stomach is filled with slime or foam all the time.

UPDATE! UPDATE! UPDATE!

Just came from doctors and here's what happened. Explained the vomiting and the foamy gassy feeling. He upped my antacid and hopes it helps. But says at this point I should be tolerating much more than I am. So he seriously thinks my sleeve is too narrow. Sending me for an endoscopy and states we may need to ”stretch” it. What does this mean????

I do this when I eat too fast or eat too much

This also happens to me when I eat too much or eat too fast. In my case it has nothing to do with acid.

Is this a stricture?

[vampsy 29]

Is this a stricture?

He thinks it may be. I have many of the symptoms. But what does he mean they may have to stretch it???

In my case their is no eating too much or too fast. It just always happens. I constantly have a foamy feeling in my tummy. And even the smallest amount of anything comes right up.
