terrydumont46 1,954 Posted October 1, 2014 well, I just had to share with you all that while everything was going alright and I was doing so well. lost 13 lbs and started exercising again since my knee surgery. but I am now having some problems with esophagus pain and not being able to tolerate solids again. I had 4 episodes since the beginning of august of severe nausea and vomiting. so I am going back in for a upper gi with barium swallow and to get unfilled. I cried and cried yesterday because I tried really hard and was compliant. I hope the upper gi doesn't show anything and a bit of a unfill is all I need. boy am I ever praying. and although this doesn't have anything to do with what I am going through I just want to remind people to please call your doctor when complications are happening. than come and talk with us. there have been several postings where ppl haven't notified their doctor of problems. stop complications before they become serious. things can happen even when you are doing everything correctly.

blacktxbelle 99 Posted October 1, 2014 I just want to remind people to please call your doctor when complications are happening. than come and talk with us. there have been several postings where ppl haven't notified their doctor of problems. stop complications before they become serious. things can happen even when you are doing everything correctly. You sure hit the nail on the head there! I love the bariatricpal community but friends we have to remember that we are your cheerleaders. We are here for any questions others may have about our experiences but when you are uncomfortable as a result of nausea, have concerns about slippages, and other things that we see become serious all too quickly, please make sure to contact your physician as quickly as you can. Most often the staff at your respective offices expect that there are going to be lots of questions don't forget they are a resource too. terrydumont46 I sure hope you get to feeling better soon. It stinks when you know you're doing the right things but not getting the expected results. I will be praying for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
