It's been a painful interjection in my sleep - started throwing up in bed, out of the blue. never had reflux issues before. threw up 7 or 8 times. hard wretching, bringing up digested food.....gross... hadn't eaten since 7pm, this was around midnight. wasn't stuck on food, no pain before hand. sipping on warm tea right now to ease pain in my throat. was banded in dec 08, been losing nice an steady since then. am kinda concerned, any thoughts??:cool:

Handy Shopping List for post-op recovery
nicci63 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Plan ahead of surgery day, and you will have a much easier time in recovery. This is a general list that i have posted before, it's not comprehensive, but will get you thinking about what you may need to make life a little easier during your post-op time. Have a great surgery, I did, almost a year for me now, and 77 down :thumbup: Blessings for Christmas and the New Year Nicci63 NON-food ITEMS: Heating pad (12inx24in) - for shoulder pain if you have any Flexible ice pack (hot/cold 12inx16in) - for shoulder pain if you have any A few books or movies Squishy pillow for car ride home - for seatbelt (shoulder pad) Make sure you have a good blender Small mouthwash sized plastic cups (I got 3oz/88ml cups – 100ct – for making Jello in!) PHARMACEUTICALS: - follow doc’s instructions for meds Adult liquid Tylenol - check with your doc before using Wet Wipes Pill crusher Chewable Vitamins Stool Softener - check with your doc first Moist and nice tasting Lip Balm FOOD ITEMS: - follow your doc’s instructions on nutrition post-op Protein shakes Protein Water (K2O) Plenty of water broth or stuff to make broth sugar free popsicles Sugar free jello Sugar free breath mints (chewable) Crystal Light Bouillon Cream of Wheat Creamy Soups Applesauce FAT FREE yogurt Soup-at-Hand - soups - for creamy stage pudding cups (SF/FF) - helps w/ taking meds(got instant, more flavors, price per box) Sugar free hot cocoa Decaf tea CLOTHES POST-OP: Loose fitting, easily removable button down shirts or PJ tops Thong shoes/slip-on/Crocs - so no bending and tying LADIES – tip for surgery day, wear a button down shirt, and no bra..it’s much more comfortable!! -
