yes you will start noticing a little less food and then a little less Water each day consumed and feel nauseous and you may feel pain or uncomfortable feeling and you may vomit. I didn't have vomiting this time. just less consumption with pain but I also have gallbladder issues that was just diagnosed a few hours ago.

I have noticed an uncomfortableness when I drink liquids. Feels like a knot in my chest started late last week and have got sick more. Just thought I was becoming intolerant to certain foods.

try taking smaller sips to see if it helps and go slower. now food makes it more uncomfortable. if it gets worst and everything seems to get stuck call dr

I have tried slowing down even more and sipping even smaller sips. It's not better but not worse so some improvement. If it continues need to call the dr.

Sounds like pouch swelling. Eat crushed ice instead of drinking for awhile

Crushed ice is awesome. If you have a Sonic drive-in, they will sell you a bag of it for a good price. I can eat a huge cup of crushed ice easier than the same size cup of Water.< /p>

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
