Throwing up blood after 6 months



Recommended Posts

Hello guys

SO I am 6 months post Gsleeve

Yesterday after eating I started to feel pain

I thought maybe did not chew enough .. so needed to throw up

Pain escalated from 4 to 8 in minutes

Nothing to throw up.. but still felt bad

No medicine helped at that point ..

Couldn't lie down or sit or even stand or walk ..every position made me feel worse

Blood was brown and red ..

It was 3rd time this happening .. but not as much blood .

Doctors told me when it happened b4 .it was normal just need to chew better or eat slowly and this is gases case in colon or something..

This time it was more than 3 hours .. I felt it was eternity

Please go to the er NOW!! Do not wait with this. Throwing up blood is very serious. If you don’t have someone to take you please call an ambulance.

please update us when you are able to do so. I will be keeping you in my thoughts and praying for a good outcome.

it is disturbing that your dr said it’s normal and did not check you out to see what was going on. I do hope that you head to the er and have them take a look. Throwing up blood is never normal.

Bright red blood would usually indicate that it is coming from somewhere in your throat. Brown and like coffee grounds is usually partially digested blood from the stomach. It could indicate an ulcer. I would phone your Dr and see what he/ she advises. Usually blood looks like a lot more than it actually is, a little goes a long way especially when mixed with saliva or digestive fluids.

I would go to the ER. If you don't have insurance for that, I would call your surgeon asap. I hope it's nothing serious, but I'm worried about you!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
