Need some advice/help



Recommended Posts

I had my 4th fill about 4wks ago. Before I went in for the 4th fill I was feeling decent restriction but both the dr. and I thought I could use just a little more. She added a very small amount of Fluid. Since then I have felt about the same restriction although some times I vomit and have heartburn/reflux also. This isn't an everyday/ every meal occurance. Also during that 4wk period I have lost NOTHING. It is very frustrating. Don't know if I am too "tight" and need a slight unfill or if I should just hold out a few more weeks to see if I reach a comfy spot.

Thanks for your replies in advance.

Hello,

If you are vomitting and having reflux you should go in and have some of the fill removed. I just got my second fill and was told if I experiance these 2 things to come back.....

I sure hope this helps,:wink:

I had my fill and was fine for awhile and now I can't eat anything without vomiting. Does anyone know why this happens?

      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?
