Vomiting blood



Recommended Posts

Hello-

You say you know how a slip feels. Would you be willing to describe that for me?

Thanks,

Bette

Vomiting at night sure sounds bad. I would worry about aspiration, from that type of vomiting, especially if you end up choking on it.

I sure hope you can find the help you need...................Lee

If you haven't already, oh please, oh please get a second opinion. I vomited blood once and it was terrifying! Do you take medication? My problems were caused by medication irritation in the pouch.

Hey Kat!!! I just read your post. I MISS you SO much! Can I send you a PM? I am hoping you and your family are doing well. We started another support/exercise thread in that forum for April '06 bandsters. Please check in because the group has been asking about you!

(Sorry to interrupt your thread!!)

Iwas having my surgery 8/23, I decided to give it more thought after hearing some of the complications. I have tried all types of diets and I really know that I will get worst if I don't do something. So my question is would you do it again even with some of the problems you are having

Why? The complications of being fat are far more drastic, life changing, and lethal than the potential complications of banding.

Either you are ready to be healthy and have a new life as a thin person or you aren't. Only you can answer that.

      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.
