Hi, I was banded 6 days ago and had a fair amount of trouble for the first 3 or 4 with nausea and consequently didn't have much to drink and lived on anti nauseants. The nausea has abated and now I suddently seem to have a coated tongue (and probably roof of mouth although I can't see it very well). It does not go away with brushing teeth or using mouthwash etc. Does this coated tongue thing sound familiar to anyone? Please let me know. Thanks!:)

It doesn't sound like anything I had personally with my banding, but it sounds like it may be a thrush infection to me. It is a form of a yeast infection that occurs in the mouth. I seem to remember it being pretty easily cleared up.

I'd call my Dr. and let them take a look, even your PCP should be able to deal with it, it may or may not be band related. My former MIL used to get them every single time she took an antibiotic!

I know for basic yeast infection I have read to eat yogurt, so you might be able to try that when you get progressed to mushies, but for now, I would call the Dr., and see if there is something more going on.

Hope you feel better soon. Welcome to bandland, it really is a nice place to be, hope you begin to enjoy it soon!! And welcome to LBT!!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
