Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on the 8th of April and just a few minutes ago I had a piece of gum in my mouth and I started laughing and I swallowed my gum should I be worried

Whew--this is only about GUM, not cannibalism! I feel MUCH better.

I hope everything about the gum you swallowed, ummmm, "comes out okay". w00tbrows.gif

I had to take a 2nd look at that post! LOL! Thought maybe you were a cannibal. Not sure how swallowing gum works with the sleeve. Im currently banded which I guess is a no-no, but my dr never said anything about it to me. And never once in the past 46 have I ever swallowed a pc of gum. Since there's nowhere for it to actually get stuck (ike with the lapband), I'm sure you're ok.

Just be more careful in the future! And use spellcheck! (like that would've done any good!)

I am used to reading typos, I figured it was gum. Either that our you had one heck of a hunger attack! :o

I think the gum will pass.

I guess it was better to mistype and have it come out "piece of him", rather than spell "gum" with a "c". :rolleyes:

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
