5 weeks out and first sliming and puking experience

[eclipse 67]

Let me start by acknowledging that I know I'm lucky that I haven't had any issues before now. Today's dinner of just over an ounce of baked salmon and 3 slices of pre packaged apple slices with a tsp of Peanut Butter pretty much sent my mouth sliming almost immediately. About ten minutes later, up she came. The bright side? I was impressed with how well I chewed my dinner.

I am sorry you are going through this. I am pre-op so please forgive my ignorance. What is sliming?

Thank you . It's when your mouth begins to run with excess saliva. It usually only happens to me before I vomit, but I've read here that some people will slime wo vomiting. Not my experience tonight.

I slime when I eat chicken or something that is too dry. But it also happened after a spoonful of frozen yogurt and another time with avocado. I think my "sleevie" is sensitive to textures. It usually passes within 5 minutes and I have not thrown up once since surgery. My NUT said that if something causes slimming, I should wait a few weeks before trying it again.
