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!!!!

      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.

      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!
