Liquid coming up after eating



Recommended Posts

I'm 5 months out and wondering if this is normal for many of you.

2 things are happening periodically after eating:

1) Sometimes after eating, I have a lot of thick liquid "come back up" from my stomach. I mentioned this on my last Dr. visit and to the Nurse and she said it is likely saliva I've produced and swallowed.

2) Sometimes I have a lot of post-nasal discharge after eating and have to go spit.

Other than that, things are great although I do get lightheaded at times and my eyes feel strained a good bit.

See an eye doctor for your eyes and you might be over eating or have allergies which cause post nasal drip if its a significant amount and you just ate its the equivalent of drinking right after you ate take a decongestant to dry things up just an idea

I will be 6 weeks post op tomorrow and I have the same issue. It's followed by vomiting I am in the hospital

waiting for tests to be completed. They are going to give me the barium to see if there are any obstructions. I am so over the vomiting that I can't see straight.

Hi,for the eyes that feels strained.Have your Vitamin A checked.I had to fight my dr about this as they kept saying its my age and I should just get glasses.After surgery I started feeling a change in my eyes.Everyone thought I was struggling to accept the fact that I am 45 and often people have to get glasses at this age.

It so happens that my vit A bottomed out and was super super low when he finally gave in and tested it.I have to take quite high dosage of Vit A now and will retest end of the month.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
