Small Traces of Blood...



Recommended Posts

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.

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.

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.

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

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. :)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
