Chest burning, vomiting foam



Recommended Posts

I hope this isn't tmi, but I just had my band put in Friday, 12-9-16. The 1st day I was in a lot of pain from the gases in my chest, I was able to drink a lot though. But starting yesterday, I can barely drink small sips of Water. I have to burp after every sip and still sometimes vomit white foam. I'm so thirsty but I keep throwing it up. And when I'm sleeping, I wake up choking. Is there anything I can do to fix these things? Right now I'm asking myself what have I done..any suggestions are appreciated.

Call your doctor's office asap. I had that as well when I had my band In my case it was acid reflux. I wouldn't think that you should have those kinds of symptoms that soon with no fill...so please contact your doctor's office right away.

When did you have your surgery? I am currently taking micro small sips and the reflux doesn't seem as bad. I'll call my Dr in the am

Something wrong... this shouldn't happen.

Go to ER...

So I called my Dr and sure enough, something was wrong. I am currently being treated for thrush in my mouth and esophagus (something from the iv they said). My Dr thinks that I should be able to swallow better this afternoon and I am, a little bit. This is rough, but I'm choosing to stay positive. If I can get rid of the thrush and start drinking again, things will be good.

Had to go to the er today for fluids and diflucan via iv, spent the entire day there...still can't drink still no answers...anyone ever heard of this..my Dr is saying this elephant that keeps sitting on. My chest is from the thrush...this is the worse heartburn I have ever had..plus my blood pressure was 142/110 so I'm sure that didn't help things

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
