mbuczkowski 272 Posted November 6, 2016 Not sure how to word this. How many sleevers have had no issues with any kinds of food, indigestion, heartburnd, GERD, etc. pre-op and remained the same post-op? I've never struggled with anything like that but wanted to know the possibility of these afterwards. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kmorri 1,689 Posted November 6, 2016 Me! I didn't have those issues before and haven't had any issues afterwards. I'm currently just under 6 months post op. My surgeon did have me on a PPI for the first 3 months but now I'm fine without it. I've not had any problems with any certain foods either. Good luck to you!!!

laney 172 Posted November 6, 2016 I also have not had any issues with from the start. Surgery went well and so has the liquid diet and soft food stage. I see my NUT Friday and start on all foods again. 2 months post op and down 50 pounds!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suzzzzz 1,005 Posted November 6, 2016 I have not had those issues pre or post op. However, the possibility is there to experience one or more of them. Nothing that can't be dealt with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kathy812 794 Posted November 6, 2016 I'm two years out, no issues before or after with food, Gerd, vomiting..etc. I had high blood pressure and sleep apnea before & those issues have resolved themselves.

Bufflehead 6,358 Posted November 6, 2016 I'm 3 years post op. I choose not to eat bread made with yeast or drink anything carbonated because they make me uncomfortable. They don't make my physically ill (nausea, vomiting, sliming, etc.), just uncomfortable. I don't have any other issues with food. Before my operation I occasionally had mild reflux, due to a hiatal hernia which was fixed with my sleeve surgery. No more GERD post op. I haven't thrown up once post op. I was never nauseated. I don't have any problems with gas or indigestion or anything like that. One of my brothers-in-law says that people in my family all have the stomachs of goats and the constitutions of cockroaches, and I think he's right. None of us ever get any kind of sickness from food, none of us ever throws up, none of us ever has any kind of digestive or elimination problems, and we rarely get any kind of disease at all. Other than the bread and carbonation issues, I've got the same set of non-problems post-op that I had pre-op Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
