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!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
