Runny Nose after VSG. Does it go away ?



Recommended Posts

Mine finally stopped dripping for no apparent reason, but it does drip when I am bordering on full. I love it. It's totally my warning sign that I need to stop eating NOW.

Sometimes I am full after a 1/2 cup, sometimes I am full after a few tablespoons. I can't always tell, but my nose can! It's my built in personal alarm. When I listen to my nose, I never get the gacky I gotta throw up NOW feeling, when I don't, well...

Hi @@LipstickLady

Good to hear that your nose stopped dripping!

It is interesting to hear that the nose can warn of getting too full. Yes, it is a great sign!

I haven't thrown up for a long time now, but get the runny nose practically every day.

Some days are lot worse than others, I hope I am not sensitive to yellow cheese, that I love.

Had a nice pork dish today, and I added a tablespoon of Mozzarella to it. Straight after .... bad runny nose with sneezing.

And the itching at night, but this is due to my Thyroid.

My current song is "I scratch myself ..." sang to the Divinyls tune .....

I will pay more attention to what I eat, drink/do when I get a really bad runny nose and sneezes.

Thank you for your reply.

Back to soldiering on ..... :blink:

LOL. "Every time I eat cheese I scratch myself."

I also get a runny nose but only if I've eaten a bite too much. My warning sign is a little burp or hiccup. Love it.

LOL, not the cheese!

Yes, I too get burps or hiccups if I eat too much .....

I wrote this silly chorus line to the "I Scratch Myself" ......

Chorus:

I need something else,

When I eat too much I sneeze and scratch myself

oh no

I want to stop and tell,

Had enough of runny nose, scratching go to hell

oh wow

oh no, oh wow

oh no, not the cheese

this is just too much

stop it, pretty please!

:D

Feel free to add to it ......

You won the Internet today. Thank you so much for this. I honestly think it needs its own post.

I had my RNY surgery at Kaiser six months ago they told us that when your nose starts running, your body is telling you that you are eating too much. Sometimes it runs when I eat sometimes it doesn't, its interesting

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
