I have an issue that I haven't seen discussed and I am desperate for help.

I was sleeved on 4/ 22. Post op has been fine, no pain, incisions are almost all healed. The issue I am having, and have been having over the last 4-5 days is this. I am taking small sips of liquid.... Water, rtd Protein Shakes, crystal light, and zero Vitamin water. I take a small SIP, I burp, and then reguritate it back up. I am feling constantly FULL. Its like nothing is leaving my sleeve. I have to have a cup with me constantly to spit this stuff into ( I am sorry about the picture I'm describing...but its the truth!) I am terrified I am going to become dehydrated. It is not vomiting...its the burping and regurgitating. I am not keeping anything in. This cannot possibly be normal. I have emailed my surgeon ( I was sleeved in Mexico). I also have an appointment with my PCP on Friday am. Can anyone give me any insight? I am over this!

Thanks for any input you can give me!

You need to call your doctor and have an Endoscopy done, now.

My mom had those symptoms the week before she passed away - I am not trying to scare you.

They think she had a vein bulge in her esophagus and it was creating a blockage (they think). My Mom passed away from a espohageal embolism a week after my VSG Surgery.

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.
