acid reflux and night



Recommended Posts

Lately if I eat a one to two hours before bed time wake up with Fluid in my throat and a bit goes into my lungs and makes me cough. So sometimes I go to sleep sitting up. Well the last I went to sleep sitting up the stuff came out my nose. I think that it goes into my lung a make me feel bad for a day. I have can not eat before bed and It is really hard. I was banded almost 1 year and 9 months and was 254 and now I am 156. I think that I am still losing weight and want to stop. I try to eat what ever I want now. I have really good days and some bad days. If I dont eat Breakfast of some sort usually my day will go bad. The one thing that saves me is that I exercise. I do it everyday. I just started running. I also do kickboxing. someone let me know about that feeling in my threat.

I've been dealing with the same thing for a few months now....PCP put me on Protonix and that helps some. I also had to cut out my arthritis meds, SF dark chocolate and had to switch to low acid coffee. That helped for a few months but now it's back again. I had an EGD last week to examin my esophagus (they put a camera down your throat).... I just knew I had an ulcer but they said it was mildly irritated BUT my band has tightened up and food is backing up in my esophagus. So .....Monday I'm getting a slight unfill. I hope they know what they are talking about because this is getting miserable.

Hope you get some relief soon, sweetie!!

      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.
