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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
