vampsy 29 Posted March 31, 2012 Ok, maybe this is tmi but I am really concerned and hope you can help. This morning I woke up with the sudden urge to throw up. I got out of bed and ran to the restroom. I threw up what looked like bits of raisins. Small and black in color. Last night I had some Water before bed and dinner I had some plain yogurt. I had nothing with color. I feel okay now, but it was ugly and kind of scary. Any thoughts??? BTW... I'm six weeks post op if that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New1 201 Posted March 31, 2012 It sounds dark and grainy but it could just be the way it shows in my mind. It may be blood. I would just call the doc and run it by them for peace of mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vampsy 29 Posted March 31, 2012 Blood??? But yes dark and grainy describes it. But this late out? Did I do something? My docs office is closed now and won't be open till Monday? But I guess I'll see if it happens again and I'll leave a message with his answering service. I just hope that was the first and last time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ButterflyGirl 4 Posted March 31, 2012 Not to try to scare you but you should seek to se a doctor today! Any fever, chills or anything out of the ordinary aside from the "raisins"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr_Worm 129 Posted March 31, 2012 if it looked like coffee grounds then it was blood...when was the sleeve date Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
traceyc 89 Posted March 31, 2012 There should always be a doctor on call. It may not be your surgeon but someone. I think you should call for sure. Vomiting that color is a concern with or without a sleeve. Hope it turns out to be nothing, but you can't be too careful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vampsy 29 Posted March 31, 2012 ok, so it was old blood. Possibly the scabbing from the inside of my tummy from the incision. That was scary. Thanks all for the concern. I did call and describe what it was and this is what i was told. But was also told if it happened again to call and it hasnt. 2 lyndynojo and New1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
