Throwing up bile every morning



Recommended Posts

I just had my follow appointment almost 2 months out. I told my surgeon I have been throwing up yellow stuff. He responds its bile. As if its normal, I just feel like talking to him is a waste of my time. Ive grown tired of turning to him for anything

:(

He didn't say what is causing it?

Tests he could do?

How to stop it?

I'm so sorry... I know you have been suffering like this for a while...

Can you go see your primary care physician?

Did your surgeon do a liver biopsy as a part of your surgery? If so, maybe the cyst is related?

I was sick and in pain for about 8 hrs, throwing up bile. Went to the emergency room and It turned out I was having a gallbladder attack. They ended up removing my gallbladder and no more problems with that. I would get another doctors opinion asap!

I agree sounds like gallbladder. Have you had yours removed? If not, I would for sure have it checked.

Sounds like your primary doc isn't much better. Get new doctors that actually care about you.

I had a cat scan, actually several, for kidney surgery and I have a cyst on my liver as well. I'm almost ten months out but I assumed it might be from them lifting the liver for surgery. My kidney doctor didn't elaborate on the liver cyst.

Let me know what you find out. But I haven't had any problems like your having :(

When will your blood work be in? Did they take labs?

Did your surgeon run any type of tests??

You have suffered too too long

I am so sorry :(

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
