Throwing up Normal?



Recommended Posts

Im a year out and i throw out almost every time i eat, i was getting to where i could eat probly too much of some foods and hadn't lost any weight for a while so i went in for a fill, i cant even hold Water down now, i have been throwing up all day, this is the second time i let him fill me too much, i don't know what sensation to look for when getting a fill to know when it is right. And is it normal to throw up?:confused:

Not normal at all to throw up. As a matter of fact it can lead to problems, such as a slip.

When going in for a fill does your dr have you drink to make sure you aren't too tight? If your doc does not do fills under scope, and barium swallow, maybe you want to take a Protein Shake with you so he can put some fill in, then you take a drink, if it goes down easy your good, if it backs up and won't go down, you will know it, and he can take a little out.

If you can not keep anything down, I would go in for a slight unfill.

Come on you have been at this a year. you know what is going on here. Not loosing weight? eating too much of some foods that are slider foods? my guess? and vomiting? Too Tight to in the band to adjust for the slider foods your eating. then when you do eat real food you vomit. Careful here this leads to problems.

I AM NOT SAYING THIS IS YOU!!! IT WAS ME. I HAD TO RE-BOUND AND TURN IT AROUND AND I DID. i see you in me. catch it now before you have a real issue..

Just trying to help

Call your doctor right away!! You need a bit of an un-fill. If you wait, they may have to do a total unfill for a while -- or your band could slip! This needs immediate medical attention. Seriously, don't put it off. I am surprised that you did not know this already, since you are a year out.

I hope it goes well!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
