Cant keep anything down



Recommended Posts

Hello, I had my gastric sleeve august 4 and i was told i could enter phase 2 pureed. So far i cant keep anything in my system. If i have broth my bowel is liquid and unexpected and frequent. If i have anything thicker I'll puke it up. The pain of anything thick going down hurts so much im stunned. Ive been super weak and missed days of work because i cant get out of bed. Is anyone or have anyone experienced this?

Call your surgeon. Be sure to get in Clear liquids and drink something with electrolytes while waiting to hear from surgeon.

Did you try taking smaller swallows? Then pause for a minute or so and take another small amount. I use a baby spoon because it's easy to put a big amount in then it hurts like hell going down if you don't catch yourself. I would def call the Dr. .... Hope it gets better.

Tami, im going to try that. Ive been told by my bf that he thinks im eating and chewing as i did before the surgery and to slow down. I agree the pain of feeling anything go down even after a bite just leaves me stunned. I have to catch myself better. I will still call the doc though. Thank you for your help

You Definitely have to take small bites and small sips. Some Nuts suggest using baby/toddler utensils to keep bites small. Also get the Baritastic App. It has food timers so you can pace yourself.

Hoping you feel better.

Call the Dr. But also use a heating pad or hot wet towel and lay it on your chest it opens you up a bit so the food can go down when it feels stuck.

Cont on liquids. And start warm li guides in the morning. I had to do like 20 to 30cc every 10 min. Made a big difference. If your still throw up its because to much at a time. Pace it out more and drink less. Stay on liquids until your done throw up

      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?
