Has Any One Had A Stent?



Recommended Posts

Hi my name is jordyn I was 19 when I had RNY on aug 22 2012!!

Two weeks ago I had begun to throw up constantly everything even medicine and Water... To the point that I couldn't do it any more I was so dehydrated it was horrible. I called my dr an he sent me in for a scope in which they found that i had built up so much scar tissue in 5 weeks that the opening to my pouch was the size of the tip of a ball point pin... They placed a stent in there and put me on liquid diet again for 4 days as soon as I returned to soft/ purée foods I have begun throwing up again... Has any one been through this if so please help me.. I contacted my dr an was put on 2 more days liquid diet... This is horrible!!!

So far I am now 7 weeks out and have lost 48 pounds!!!!

      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! 😞
