I am so sorry you are going through this. It sounds awful. Are you eating slowly and chewing thoroughly? I hope others on this site and your doctor can help you.

I am one year and almost 9 months post-op and this happens to me all the time. I never puke blood though, but other than that I have comparable issues. As an example, I've been eating quinoa sticks this week and randomly today they made me supremely sick. Some days I will be able to eat a few pieces of sushi, other days it makes me barf almost instantly. I have a few foods that have always been safe, like Tomato based Soups, marinara, some crackers, etc, but I think at some point almost everything has randomly made me sick. There isn't anything medically wrong with me- my stomach just hates food.

I was initially concerned that I may end up eating too little, however I've learned to enjoy both the good and the bad food days because they always balance out. Some days I can pack away 1500 calories and other days, like today, I'm struggling on 500-800. My irritable stomach keeps me skinny so I don't complain about it too much. :)

      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.
