I'm six months pot op, gastric by-pass.. e verything going well except something weird the past 5 days... when eating dinner about half way through I am getting what I believe to be indigestion. I take an antacid & then I vomit my dinner! Very strange, I do not feel sick, no new food.. had anyone experienced this??

You may be eating too fast or too much at a time. Try taking smaller bites and waiting a full minute in between and see if it helps. You may just be overriding your signal to stop. I'm kind of jealous. I can't throw up. If I go too far or get sick, I just sit there dry heaving but I can't physically throw up. [emoji53]

Does it ever happen earlier in the day or just at dinner? I have noticed that I get fuller faster as I go throughout the day. Like at Breakfast I can eat more but by dinner I can't eat nearly as much. So yeah, maybe just eating to much or to fast. I'd call your Dr if it keeps up though just to be safe.

I vomit if I eat too fast or little too much. Dr told me it was normal BUT since I know why, he said to correct!! Change your dinner to lunch, it might help.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
