Throwing Up Allmost All The Time



Recommended Posts

Had surgery 2008. threw up often and everything I ate. after all this time, i'm still throwing up. not every day but when I do it is mostly mucus along with some food. I chew everything well. sweets ie; candy, always stays down. wish the food would. now i'm a diabetic still and I eat chocolate to survive since everything else won't stay down. there are days when I can eat just about any thing and then I feel great. but it is not everyday. any ideas out there? have had dumping syndrome one time and it was terrible let me tell you, once was enough. i'm down to 180 from 397 and feel ok most of the time. am also a severe heart patient. triple bypass and 27 stents have been placed. so would I do this surgery over again?? In a heart beat. Being fat was a nightmare I wouldn't wish on anyone especially a child that was the butt of every nasty, malicious taunts etc etc

.people have no idea what being fat is all about until you have been grossly fat for some time. Just being able to fit in a movie theater seat, made me cry the first time. just fitting into a size 42 jeans made me cry in a fitting room, down from a size 62 pant size. wishing to blend into a crowd and finally doing it and feeling invisible for once in your life. being the stand out "fat" person was not my idea of a nice life. so even with all this throwing up I still would do it all over again.

I was one of the people who felt, speaking just for myself, that even if I died during surgery it would be better than having to live one more day as "The fat person every body laughted at or was discusted by".

Why haven't you been back to your doctor long before this? Sounds like you have a stricture. You are doing serious damage to your body by not getting this fixed and getting proper nutrition and Vitamins. This is serious--especially with your other conditions. For heaven's sake, get back to your surgeon immediately!

      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.
