heart burn?



Recommended Posts

Hello,

I just had a defill of 1/2 cc on Friday.....Ever since Friday, I have been experiencing bad heart burn. Does anyone else get this? I don't think it has anything to do with my defill? Seems that everything I drink or eat causes this burning sensation.....

Hope everyone else is doing great....

Thanks,

Doriana

Thank you... I hope you are feeling better too. I asked Nancy and I was told I didn't have to go on liquids....I don't know, maybe I should have.

Take care,

Doriana

I've had a hard time with heartburn and reflux....even with liquids sometimes. PCP finally put me on Protonix....it helps some. I've also given up dark SF chocolate and cut back on my arthritis meds. That helped, too.

If you had been dealing with a too-tight band, you may have some irritation....try the liquids for a couple of days.

Hope you're all better!!

Can't drink wine anymore and I love it. I take antacids a lot to help with the heartburn and try to avoid anything that may make it worse.

Loriely,

I'm feeling much better, Thank you... I also emailed Nancy yesterday and she told me that the heartburn was probably associated with being too tight in the first place and just to watch the types of foods i'm eating from now on.

I also made an appt. with the dietician who works at The TLBC, her name is Denise. She's coming over next Friday night. I'm excited about it and I hope she will be able to put me on some type of program......As I'm not eating very well right now. I have to start taking proper Vitamins too. I have no idea what to take.

Thanks for your concerns and I hope you are feeling better too.

Take care,

Doriana...

      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.
