Will Er Know How To Take Fluid Out?



Recommended Posts

Yesterday I went and had a fill. I have had 7 ccs for about 1 1/2 years. He gave me 2 ccs. Afterwards I was able to drink the Water after the appointment and some for bout an hour after that. When I got home I made a Protein Shake and could not keep that down and have not been able to keep water down since. I am getting worried. I have never had this happen with a fill. So here I am and it is the weekend and I know I need to get water in and I am not sure if it would be wise to wait until Monday.

Call your doctor. Sometimes they will be on call and can meet you there or they might be willing to talk to the attending to tell them what to do. Don't suffer. It's not worth it.

No they won't... Been there, done that. The best they will offer is IV fluid...

I agree call your doctor; they are on-call and can deal with these type of situations

Me too! Call your doctor's emergency number. My doctor met me at the office after hours one time so I wouldn't have to incur ER expenses.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
