Vomited clear slime, felt like dying



Recommended Posts

I'm 3 weeks post op and ate some sjreded meat today (ok per my doctor). 10 minutes later I felt really horrible, and the pain stuck around for about 10 minutes. I also did a lot of spitting and felt nauseated.

Then I retched a few times, and ultimately threw up some clear goo.

Should I be worried that I damaged my stomach or sleeve? This seemed a lot worse than just sliming. Has this happened to anyone else?

Shredded meat. Sorry. Typing on my phone.

This sounds about normal. It still happens to me and I'm 14 months post-op. Just yesterday I decided to eat half a chicken sandwich...grilled chicken, lettuce, Tomato, and wheat bun and I spent the next 2 hours puking up chicken covered in slime. It's really very sexy, lol, but it's also normal, so don't be worried. :)

It just means your new tummy doesn't feel ready to tolerate that just yet, and is giving it back for re-consideration.

It's only happened a couple times, when I ate too much ("one bite too much") and/or too quickly. It happens rarely now since I'm getting more used to the smaller portion sizes.

Happens to me now and then too. Unless it's often or very painful, I would not worry.

      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?
