Question Need help



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery Nov 18th, all had been well. I got a stomach virus 4 weeks ago and it had me barfing. I can't eat many if the things I could before. No gravy, butter, noodles, just started keeping dwn milk.

I cooked checked thigh in my slow cooker with Tomato sauce, made wheat Pasta on the side, got nauseous so I stopped eating it. Seems like I can't even have salad. In short it seems like the food has to have some density on bread or meat or vegetables steamed with no oil. The only pasta I was able to keep down close when I'm next to mine meat sauce in with the spaghetti noodles and didn't cook them too long. Do you think something may have gone wrong when I kept barfing up about 7 weeks after the Surgery?

I don't know what surgery you had, but if it's the lap band, I've had it before, I just had a VSG last week.

If it's the lap band, you can risk throwing up so much that your stomach will prolapse above the band. That is what happened to me.

I'd be very careful about chewing slowly, thoroughly and taking a long sweet time to eat.

Why are you eating pasta, noodles, and bread?

I encourage you to talk to your NUT about your issues.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
