Can't Keep Liquids Down



Recommended Posts

I had surgery 16 months ago. I have had a lot of success. My concern is that for the past 2-3 weeks I have days where i can't eat anything solid. For the past week I can't even keeps liquids down. I seem to throw everything up. I have heart burn like I have never had before. At my last visit, I did not get filled and my prior visit I had Fluid removed. I am only at 2cc. I go to the dr on Tuesday. Any ideas on what my problem may be? I have had such success that I hate thought of losing fluid or getting it removed.

If you're having trouble keeping liquids down, you need to either go to the ER or see your doctor as soon as possible. Dehydration occurs quite quickly and IS NOT PLEASANT!!!!!

I also have that problem from time to time.you do need to see your dr. Mine seems to happen when I have a lot of stress..my dr told me to drink in sips and make sure I drink protien shakes. But your dr may have another suggestion or may want to send you to make sure you didn't slip.

I would be going into your doctor immediately and demanding a barium swallow to have your band checked. Those are all the classic signs of being too tight, but being as you have already have some removed and so little in the band, I fear a slip.

The golden rule is if u cannot keep liquids down that needs a doctor visit to sort it out, worst case scenario is a slip maybe or more normally you are internally swollen from being stuck, either way its a doctors visit that is needed .. good luck ..

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
