PB in AM-->Reflux in PM?



Recommended Posts

Guys, I'm kinda miserable. I've got 1.8cc in a 4.0cc band and it has been a good level for me.

But this morning I PBed Breakfast (only the 2nd time I've ever PBed) and now I'm not able to drink anything because it keeps refluxing back up. I also had bad hiccups earlier.

HELP! I'm in pain and I need to get through the night and will call Dr. in the morning.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Kristin,

I feel for you. :confused: This is the sort of thing, I think, that started my round of horrible reflux last summer, and that resulted in an unfill. I guess I didn't give the initial irritation enough time to heal completely.

Can you get fluids down at all? If so, make a pact with yourself to stay on them for three or four days. It's super important that you let things settle down, because additional irritation will make things worse.

Call your doctor, of course. But give your body a chance to avoid needing an unfill by babying it totally for several days. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!!

Thank you sooo much! I took some Pepcid Complete and it seems to have made things tolerable. Hopefully all will be much better tomorrow. But I will definately stay on liquids for 3-4 days because I definately don't want that unfill.

Thanks for settling my mind!

      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!
