Vomiting in my sleep??



Recommended Posts

I am one and a half years out from my band....Very happy with my results.. but in the past couple months I have some episodes with vomiting in my sleep. I thought maybe it was my GERD, I do take omeprazole daily and I have stopped eating or drinking at least 4 hours before I go to sleep. Do i needto take my meds twice aday or any other suggestions??

My friend at work is almost a year out from hers and she started doing this around two weeks ago. Anyways, she finally went to the doctor and he had to unfill her a good bit and said her band had tightened up on its own. So he took out a couple of cc's from her band and gave her less restriction so her stomach could have a rest he said. I am still new at this but i know my friend said after he did that she has not done it since. Wish you the best of luck.

Call your doctor ASAP! I used to stop breathing and have this happen before I found out that I have Obstructive sleep Apnea.

My doctor said this is a sign that you're too tight and that it needs urgent attention. Hope you feel better soon!

      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
