When I wake of each morning the first thing I do is brush my teeth and it doesn't take much for me to gag anymore, I always feel like there is something there and capable of coming up! Has anyone else experienced this? Is it normal?

I have the same sensation in the morning. It's no painful, just obvious. I think it may be gas but no big burps happen. It seems to go away by noon.

It may be acid reflux. Check with your doc.

I have the same thing, but I'm just four days out. I hope it goes away soon for both of us. The only thing that seems to help is a sugar-free mint.

Omg I'm so glad this was asked! As soon as I wake up I take my Multivitamin, protonix and bp med with maybe half a cup of Water and almost immediately I feel nauseated. It happens even if I wait to take my meds too. I don't get it. It goes away after I start moving around for a bit, just wonder why.

It could be stomach acid. I had it & was unaware of what it was. My Dr gave me a script & now it's controlled.

Um, if I was throwing up that much I would call my dr ASAP! You could get dehydrated and that could lead to other problems.

Yes please call your Dr. ASAP. I've only been sleeved 3 days but I know that throwing up is not good. It's hard enough to keep hydrated but throwing up will deplete your hydration. I had the lap band and I threw up on a regular basis until it prolapsed & I couldn't hold down Water.

Call your Dr & make sure to be compliant because you don't want to hurt yourself.

Def get ahold of your doc. Could be a lot of things.

MrsG, try taking all that with a Protein drink or milk instead of Water on an empty stomach. Works wonders for me.

I think I figured out my own problem. I have been taking reflux medicine for years and I have continued to take that post op. I have been sip, sip, sipping up until I go to sleep. Last night I didn't lay down for like 45 minutes after I finished sipping and this morning no problems - and mind you that was at maybe 3:00 A.M. So I am going to have to try and get my fluids in faster. Any suggestions because when I drink to fast it hurts?

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
