Unsavory burning

Well now it's officially been 2 weeks today since I've had my revision from band to sleeve. This has definitely been an experience for me. This morning I woke up with a dry mouth, migraine and a burning sensation in my chest. This really sucks and it's taking a toll on me emotionally. I'm feeling like whether or not this was such a good idea. It seems I am more emotional now over being sleeved. I'm trying so hard to do this but I'm so scared. I'm having the biggest doubts. I want to follow all the rules and be healthy but it seems harder than I thought it would be. I don't want to do anything wrong or kill myself. I don't know. I guess I will wait for my nut to call about the burning in my chest. I don't know if its heartburn, acid reflux or indigestion. I needed to spit up with it and I'm guessing acid reflux.

I was sleeved on May 1st. I have heartburn most of the time. Are you taking anything? No matter what happens to us we should try to stay positive, there is no going back. I have just been taking otc drugs for indigestion. Let me know if you find something that work. Feel better soon.

did the doctor prescribe anything for the heartburn or acid reflux? if not, definitely give them a call. it's common practice to take something for the reflux/heartburn for the first six months.
