Miserable night last night



Recommended Posts

I spent much of the night last night throwing up stomach bile. No food, just acid. It hurt and was terrible. I took a lot of tums and pepto that didn't help at all. Has anyone else had this problem? I was tightened up a couple of weeks and go and this is when the problem began. I don't understand how after over a year I would start to have problems like this.:w00t:

Dear Miserable,

please contact your doctors office asap it sounds like your band may be too tight, I experienced something like that before and it's very uncomfortable and can be very painful, hope you feel better soon my friend.

If I eat too late at night I find that my band doesn't empty out and I'll get reflux at night. So what I've done is force myself to empty what might be in my pouch before I go to sleep and I can sleep the whole night. Might not be the best thing to do but I'm not interested in getting an un-fill until I've gotten to my goal weight. (another 10 Lbs). If you don't want to PB then maybe you can drink hot Water about an hour before bed to clear out any food still left lingering.

This happened to me a few times and it was because of the following:

- I had something to eat or drink to close to bed time, it doesn't all go down and you have to throw up.

- I took medication with Water to close to bed time and the same thing happened, dry reaching, pretty much acid / saliva that is coming back 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?
