anybody ever have a problem with frothy saliva?



Recommended Posts

Yes. It happens to me when I've had something with too much sugar or fat in it. It is usually followed by barfing at which point globs of frothy saliva and gooey stuff come right back up. Sometimes my sleeve just doesn't like something, such as dry chicken, and it triggers the same response.

I am only a few days post op. It was my first day on ful liquids. I had cream of wheat with skim milk. Later, I had a 4oz Protein Shake. I was stuffed and felt it was coming back up. Not barfing but like it was being forced back up because there was no room for it. Felt like there was something stuck in my throat all day. I can't seem to eat the amount of food they say I should be eating.

I understand it can also come from eating to fast. Particularly as you move to more solid foods. Your sleeve can digest it fast enough and the saliva gets displaced.

      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?
