Yes it can...they thought it was reflux...and i did have some but it was a twisted sleeve...because of a hiatal hernia...i was in surgery for 4 hours trying to get it straight. I do feel better food now goes down and drinks..no burning ...but still cant eat though it still hurts..so i guess swelling is still inside. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

I was to go in and revise my sleeve to bypass...call it change...lol but with all the test the doctor stated that he would only have to move my sleeve or straighten it out as it was twisted , and attach to my liver and my diaphragm. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

To the poster above...i had those symptoms. It turned out i had an obstruction. Along with a hiatal hernia. Just had revision surgery on October 19th 2016 and I feel so much better. I had acid reflux could barely swallow could barely drink I feel 200% better now. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

To the main poster ... I feel the same way. I had my surgery on August 5.... I am down 35 pounds with pre op and post out.... But the scale fluctuates between one and 2 pounds up or down for the last three weeks. But I know I am losing inches... I can feel it in the way my clothes fits,and the way I look. So keep the faith and hope the scale moves downward soon.

I take prescription strength Omeprazole 40 mg that was the only thing that helped otc... Was a crock.... See your dr.

Thanks ladies...,, I will try to be patient

I really hope so... It's annoying me like crazy

I am 5 weeks out... I lost 32 pounds since being sleeved on August 5.... But for the last week and a half the scale is not moving, other than an once or two..I don't eat carbs, sugar and drink water every 15 minutes.. The amount of food I eat is less than a teaspoon.... Help what am I doing wrong. Is my sleeve stretched?

i feel the same way... Was sleeved on August 5 and down 32 pounds but for the last week and a half the scale has not moved from 217... And I am worried... I drink only water and eat two teaspoons of food... That's all I can hold... So why is the numbers not going down... Hate the number...217.2

I know how you feel... I can't get anything in... I feel so miserable and dried out... I want to cry but I am afraid to loose moe water ... I think I made s big mistake... With this ... I can't eat ... I can't drink.... I am so weak it is hard to stand up for a long time... I just want to turn back time!

Me to... I am so weak... Have not eaten anything since Sunday and what I ate Sunday was less than a spoon full. Omg buyers remorse.... Yup that me!

I had a drain and came home with it. Showering was no problem . You just have to change the dressing around the incision.

I can't eat anything.... I am 2 weeks out tomorrow... And can hardly get my water in... Protein... Please everything I try to eat comes back up. I feel miserable!!!

I have lost 20 pounds since... But I feel I am trading weight loss for good health.

Good day all... Had my sleeve on August 5.... No pain, but still unable to keep food down . It always feels like it stuck in my chest.and drink in is not better. It hurts until I burp. People say it should get better ... But I am so weak at this point I am not sure .
