Just had the sleeve procedure on May 22. I have always suffered from horrible colds and drainage and I have a horrible gag reflex. However I have had 2 head colds since my surgery and on the backside of it I get horrible post nasal drip that I can't seem to dry up. It is causing me to gag and throw up. I'm wondering if this is because my stomach is smaller and I can't stomach the drainage? I am throwing up mucus everywhere... At home, in the car while driving, etc.... I'm afraid to go anywhere for fear that it will happen because it can't stop it. Please help. Is or has anyone ever experienced this? I don't know where to turn. :(

I haven't experienced it but it sounds like something to ask your surgeon and/or PCP about. Not fun at all! 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! 😞
