What I mean is phlegm. I don't know if it was cause I was sick out not (had it since Saturday) I'm pretty sure it's phlegm, I can't get it out and it's annoying. Also, can it make you nauseated? Cause I feel a little nauseated

Try gargling with warm salt Water for a day and it should go away

Phlegm is mucus, and can be the result of a cold or other respiratory infection or allergies. It can also come from consuming orange juice and dairy products (my father was an opera singer and dairy and OJ were strictly forbidden during "the season"). From my doctor's reminder sheet: "Colds, allergies, respiratory infections and sinus brainage can cause mucus to plug the opening in the stomach (Stoma); you may drink warm liquids before meals to help dissolve the mucus plug."

Hope that helps!

I've been having yogurt I don't feel sick like cold sick but could it be from being alergic to a medicine? I stopped taking it a few days ago, i just had a dry heaving spell, it sucks

Try liquid benadryl (children's allergy). The drs here said that it would dry it 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?
