Gastroperisis or stricture



Recommended Posts

I am 10 months post op and I still get full off of Water. If I take too big of a drink or don't wait long enough between sips of water I can feel it creeping up the back of my throat. I don't vomit, just feel it sitting there. Also I have to wait longer then an hour after eating anything before drinking. When I eat 3oz of dense Protein I feel full for well over an hour. The constant feeling of fullness might sound like as blessing, but it's hard to meet my water goal for the day. It's even harder when I can only drink 10-12oz of water in an hour. I am self pay, so if it is a stricture I have to pay out of pocket for anything to fix it. Also I do have MS and one complication of MS is gastroperisis. Just so confused and over feeling full all the dang time...

Sound like a good time to go to a Doc and have it looked at. Best of luck with that! I don't know that much about the lap-band,(thats what your label says) so won't be that much help...

I have an appointment with my neurologist who works at the same hospital as my surgeon and knows my surgeon and about my surgery.... I will talk to him to get his thoughts. If no success there I have my 1 year post op coming up soon. Don't feel that this is an emergency like a leak. Was just wondering if anyone who has either could share their symptoms so I could possibly have a starting point. My healing & weight loss has been smooth. But if around my 1 year mark I'm still stuck at 163 I will talk to my neurologist about trying the 5:2. Kind of like to get his blessing before I start anything new. Got his approval before the surgery. Just like to keep him informed. Ah the joys of an unpredictable chronic "illness"....
