Quiet here isn't it!? Im fine... just got back to dancing class last week.... after months of not being able to go. SOOOO happy about that! i hope that will help me to drop a couple of pounds, and really, to feel some more energy and tone. Getting ready for Thanksgiving ... Thank goodness I have the sleeve! That will at least slow me down! The family is going to a buffet... There should be plenty of good (and not so good) choices.

Hello everybody! I know I've been gone for ages, been going through some things, no time to recap it all though - emergency! Twice in the last 4 weeks I have vomited chemical tasting yellow bile about an hour after waking up, today it was traced with bright red blood. I am between jobs at the moment and do not have insurance :(. I'm scared because I googled this and it said pyloric valve damage can occur after gastrectomy or that it could be a peptic ulcer. It has been about 20 minutes since the vomiting and I have a dull ache in the spot where my stomach pouch is. I am almost 2 1/2 years out from surgery. I am still nauseous, I have nausea off and on sometimes, I chalk it up to my body adjusting to my Mirena.

OH God! GT, that sounds awful... I think you should get it checked out by a doc - might be nothing to worry about, but best to get it looked at?

let us know how you are... I've missed you =]

Globe.... how scary! Can you find a free clinic? It's so horrible not having insurance....

Wow, GT. I'm curious what it is and hopeful that it's nothing major. Keep us updated and I hope you mend quickly!

This is really scary for me to hear that your having all these difficulties, you've had more than your fair share. Please search for a free clinic and as a last result, check into the ER if it gets really bad. Let us know how your doing......HUGS! :)

Haven't been to the dr, the vomiting hasn't recurred, though I still have nausea. In an unrelated event, I had a headache for 3 days and have a pain under my right shoulderblade when I inhale, but my back pain is because of stress and anxiety.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
