Aspiration Problems



Recommended Posts

hi janell,

i am newly banded (3/30) and i dont have any fill and i had aspiration pneumonia. i am on 2 different antibiotics to clear it up.

the only way they could tell was by taking a chest xray. did you have this done?

i definitely feel better since i started the antibiotics.

i got the pneumonia about 3 weeks after my surgery.

Wow! Will you be able to get fills? Usually aspiration only occurs when you are too tight.

hi carlene,

actually i think this may have been my fault.

even tho' the 3 rules: eat small bites, eat slowly and dont drink while eating...sounded easy in theory. it was more difficult then i thought.

early on i could eat. i think i may have violated above and irritated my esophagus. and then i was PB'ing. so i think in all of this i may have taken in foreign matter in my lungs.

a friend of mine is a doctor and i saw her last weekend and she said the mouth has the most bacteria.

the upside is....i'm not hungry at all.

i did read somewhere on this site that some people dont need fills for awhile.

however i would like to start eating again. i'm still pretty much on liquids (Protein shakes, soups) and Vitamins. i feel great however.

before being banded i realize the quantity and quality of food i had been eating made me feel like cr#p

Josie...

I am not a doctor, but this does not sound right. You have no fill and should not be PBing. An unfilled band is, essentially, no band at all.

I hope you are going to have your first fill done under fluoro so the band doctor can check your band.

hi carlene

yes i did have a fluroscope check and the band was "perfect" per my doc.

i'm going to give this a few more weeks and see what happens...

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
