Numbness in my esophagus and throat?



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I just got my third fill about 2 weeks ago. Things were going pretty well, but I think I irritated my stomach by eatting red meat. After I had the meat, I noticed that I was starting to PB a lot. So I switch to eatting softer foods to ease the irritation. Well two nights ago I felt what can only be described as a warm Fluid sensation turning in my stomach and coming up my esophogus. I have never felt that before. It didnt hurt but in the morning I could feel my band (normally I cant even tell I have one). Today I woke up and I feel numbness in my esophagus and in the back of my throat. I switch to liquids. But every time I drink anything, I feel like someone has sprayed some sort of anaesthetic down my throat. What is this? Could it be heartburn? I have had heartburn before but it has always burned. This doenst.

Thanks,

LOL

Call your doc 1st thing tomorrow!! Don't wait until his office is closed for Thanksgiving. You need to get it checked; he will be the one to tell if you need to worry or not! :)

      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?
