Thrush would mean a VERY compromised immune system, so I'm voting with the MD. Can you see a medical professional?

I read somewhere that a symptom of serious dehydration is white on the tongue. Maybe that is the issue?

Yes! I had this problem after surgery and it went away on its own after a couple of weeks. I've seen a lot of other people post the same issue over the last year. I wonder why your Dr isn't aware of this?

I had thrush after surgery my bariatric doc said it was from the antibiotic and having 85% of my stomach removed compromised my immune system. He gave me a mouthwash and I started eating Greek yogurt to rebalance my stomachs PH, yes it is true it generally happens with a compromised or weak immune system but being on that antibiotic and the stomach removal my system was pretty compromised.

And I had a bad taste with a white film on my tongue, before I went and saw my bariatric doc I thought it was dehydration but all my labs were perfect and I looked great.

Go to your pcp or if you can't I would go to an urgent care or quick care. You need diflucan if you have a yeast infection. If its thrush they give you some crappy mouthwash that doesn't work. Can you eat yogurt yet?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
