I threw up in my sleep :(



Recommended Posts

So it's been a month since surgery and I can't complain besides not being able to go to the bathroom. So like everyone who recommended I bought milk of magnesia. I had it 2 weeks ago and I gagged horribly. But it did help using the bathroom. 2 nights ago I took it before I went to bed since I am at work and school all day. Once again I gagged washed my teeth and the taste went away. This night I had nightmares about food. I was eating lots of pizza(my favorite) and kept telling myself wow this is not hurting my sleeve.. Then I started eating lots and lots of sweets. OMG they all tasted sooo good.. I can't remember exactly the last dream but I woke up because I almost chocked on my throw up.. It was Water but I thought I was going to die. It only happened that night. Do you guys think this is dangerous? Should I be worried? Could it be from milk of magnesia?

if u have acid reflux or "throw up" while laying down. Just means you ate and went to sleep to fast.. At least i found that was the only time i had the issue. So when you eat wait 2-3 hours before bed... then it should happen. Its Yucky! Thank god only happened 3 times to me before i smartened up..

That's the acid reflux. When you eat or drink anything, wait a couple of hours before you lie down.

Agree with above re: not lying down shortly after eating/drinking.

I don't like the chalky taste of MOM so I use Perdiem tablets--two at night and I get results by morning.

      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!
