This has happened to me too.Usually when I eat too fast or when not chewing enough.I get a pain in my lower chest also.

I had my Hiatal hernia repaired when the did the sleeve.It failed and gerd was awful stomach pushed back toward esophagus.The had to repair hiatal hernia again when they did the bypass

If you have acid reflux now,get the Bypass.I was sleeved in 2011.Then acid reflux struck.Nothing helped.I had revision to bypass on Nov 22,2016.The sleeve makes reflux worse.

This is normal until you can eat more different foods.If you had diarrhea,it would take a while before you have to go again.Just take stool softeners and Miralax everyday for a while.

Walk as much as you can.It will help alleviate it sooner.

I use the flavored Bariactric chews.Chocolate,lemon,raspberry,caramel.The also make other chewables but the tablets tasted chalky to me.

I had revision surgery from sleeve to bypass.Used the same surgeon.No complications so far.the surgery did take longer because they go through the scar tissue.Had surgery Nov 22,2016.Have lost 25 lbs.

Thanks for sharing this article.Very informative and true.

I had the sleeve in 2011.Due to acid reflux I had bypass on Nov,22,2016.The surgery took longer because they had to go through scar tissue from other surgery.they also fixed a failed Hiatal Hernia.I was more sore this time.Walking helped a lot with the gas pains.The rest of my body was sore toofrom being on the table longer.I went home after 2 days .Had to get my Fluid intake up before they would let me go home.Only took pain meds a couples after I was home.Just walked a lot around the house.I have lost 24 lbs so far.The acid reflux is gone .So worth it.

Good Luck with your surgery

Congrats ladies.Praying for everything to go smoothly with the process,surgery and recovery.

Congrats ladies.It will change your life.

I'm 61.Had revision form sleeve to bypass due to acid reflux.Had surgery Nov.22,2016,Down 22 lbs.Doing good..

I had the sleeve done 2011.@015 developed severe gerd. Had bypass on Nov 22,2016.Wish I had the bypass to begin with.I was afraid of bypass too.Not anymore.If I didn't have the revision I could of have compromised my esophagus .No more reflux.Thank God.I did have upper Gi and edoscope done before the revision surgery.I also had hiatal hernia fail.They fix the hiatal hernia again too.

The calories are not that Eventually eating 3 meals,with Protein shakes as needed for protein.Watch your carb intake.When you have carbs they should be whole wheat complex carbs.2 -3 ozs o Protein, 1/4 cup non starchy vegetables,1/4 cup carbs.You need 60 o more grams of protein a day and 64 ozs of Fluid.If you don't get enough protein and fluids you will fill sick or really tired.

Wow! Amazing.You have done the hard work and it has paid off.Beautiful.

You can put some crystal light in it.I also use sugar free syrups.In coffee section at walmart.Mio.I use these in greek yogurt too.

No my bypass wasn't out patient.I stayed 2 days.No complications.Only had to take pain meds 2 times at home.The gas pains are the most painful,but walking a lot gets rid of them.My Dr wouldn't let you go home until you drank enough liquids and Protein.That is why I stayed 2 days.My starting weight for this was 240.I have lost 22 lbs so far.

Wow! That sucks.Hope you are doing better now.Might have to start the 1st phase of diet over and progress slowly.

Was told this could be a problem.Stool softeners,fiber or Miralax.It will get better as your food phases allow more foods.Especially vegetables and fruit.< /p>

You are a strong lady.No one ever has the right to hit you,alcohol or not.Once it starts it won't stop.Unless he gets major help.Protect yourself emotionally and physically.Document if he left marks.

It is your body but take it from me.I had sleeve 2011 and in 2015 had severe acid reflux. Had to have a revision to bypass.I too was afraid of bypass.Wished i had it the first time ,then I wouldn't of needed the second surgery.

30 to 40 % sleevers had to have revision because of acid reflux.

You look great.So proud of you.Your hard work paid off.

i told everyone.If they have a problem with it,it is their problem.My family and friends have been very supportive.

Also my Hiatal hernia failed with the sleeve and then stomach was pushing upwards.They fixed my hiatal hernia again too.

I would go for the bypass.I had sleeve in 2011.In 2015 started having all kinds of acid reflux.My Dr did revision to to bypass on Nov.22,2016.No more acid reflux.
