Problem keeping fluids down



Recommended Posts

Greetings from Thailand. I had my surgery 2 weeks ago and all was well. 40 ml liquids on day 1 - no issues, 200 ml from day 2 onwards no issues.

But since last evening even small sips of any liquid chokes me and finally after 10 minutes or so comes out with a lot of frothy saliva. I feel week and dehydrated and scared to drink even a sip of Water. Lot of burping too.

Any idea what could be wrong ? Please help.

What you are describing does not seem like a normal experience. Until you can figure out what is happening, perhaps you can eat some ice chips to keep from becoming totally dehydrated.

@@nagaraj.prasadh, maybe make a quick phone call to your surgeons office and see what they have to say. You definitely do not want to end up dehydrated.

Ask for an endoscopy, I finally did mine yesterday after 3 weeks no eating and very hard time drinking, I had a stricture, they enlarge it with a balloon during endoscopy.

      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?
