Hello, I was sleeved 8 days ago, I also had a hiatal hernia repaired. Yesterday and today I have had this feeling in the back of my throat that feels like something is stuck and there is a feeling of having to vomit and and I can hear gurgling or like a fizzing sound in my throat. The doctor told me to take Pepto Bismal and then start tomorrow on Prilosec. The doctor's office called me back this evening and said if it continues I should call the after hours emergency number because I will probably need an upper GI and or and X-ray. Has anyone else experienced something similar

My husband and I both had hiatal hernias and from what I read they are pretty common Anita. Since we were both sleeved we hear each other's gurgles, grumblings, hiccups and burps.We did not feel the need to vomit, except once when I did not chew well enough. I would "guess" the Prilosec may help. We are almost 4 months post op and have been on Prilosec since surgery. Some say their doctors keep them on this forever, others not. Hopefully this will stop - but wonder if you might get this feeling from something not agreeing with your sleeved stomach? Good luck!

      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! 😞
