Small Traces of Blood...

I ate something heavy and I ate it fast. Needless to say, my stomach rejected it and I threw up. I've noticed there are small traces of red, blood I'm assuming, in the exiting contents of my stomach.

Should I be alarmed?

I have an email out to my surgeon but I wanted some feedback from here as well. I'm 9 weeks postop.

    My doc got back to me very quickly. Since my vomiting is a result of my actions and the fact that I am, and always have been, a very violent puker that it is the force of me vomiting. Very possible.

Hi Amanda,

I suggest reposting in another forum, maybe the POST-Operation Gastric Sleeve Surgery (VSG) Questions & Answers, because this one is for vet issues and it might get overlooked.

I don't have an answer for you. Hope your Dr. gets back to you soon.

I have no symptoms of anything else. I need to slow the heck down.

(((Amanda)))- I hope you're feeling better!

Slowing the heck down is your answer. You don't want any leaks at this point and I does take MONTHS for the tummy to completely heal... like maybe 6 months....

Perhaps u need to be eating soft foods right now so that your stomach can heal and why rush through your food? Take a couple of minutes between bites and savor every bite you take, after all, we can only get a few bites in. Oh and eat a little less too. :)
