Excessive Mucous/not foamies



Recommended Posts

10 yrs post rny; 5 yrs post revision. Past 8 months or so, get pain after eating. Relieved only by vomitting thick, copious amounts of clear mucous. It's NOT the foamies. It's the consistency of karo Syrup. Dr. ordered UGI, CT and even an endoscopy and no answers. Anybody have something similar. I wouldn't mind if I could lose some weight from it, but I don't! Sometimes I'm fine; sometimes I get pain and vomit. No pattern. Very frustrated.

I had gastric sleeve on 5-27-14. When I woke up from surgery I had mucous in my throat that has not gone away. I can;t cough it up cant swallow it down. I had a hiatal hernia repaired at the same time as surgery but the doctor says test show the problem is not coming from the surgery. I went to see a ear. nose & throat doc who imcreased prilosec dosage and gave sinus spray. I'll see if this helps. But this mucous is very annoying.Makes me want to throw up and not want to eat.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
