I know exactly what you are going thru. I had Stricters and had 5Endoscopes with 4 Dialations. Which started around my 4 th week. I had probelems in Nov 2013, Dec 2013, Jan 2014 July 2114 with my last one on Jan 2015. I was exactly like you I couldn't hold even Water down. I took my sleeping pill and I was up all night throwing up. That morning I threw up that pill and it had never gone down at all. I also lost from 249 to 117#'s within 6 months!! The good thing is it is a easy fix. You take a sweet little nap and wake up it will be done. My Dr told me not to make any major decisions or sign anything for the 1st 24hours. LOL I did gain back 8#'s after I could eat and drink. But I still weigh 125#'s and have maintained that weight for 3 and 1/2 years. Take care of you!! Good Luck on your journey. Keep us posted.

Hey Nana! So sorrry you are going through this... I remember in beginning the Dr talking to me about the opening to the stomach opening in beginning is the size of tip of my little finger. He stressed that small bites, chewed to consistency of apple sauce. He said I'd I tried to eat larger bites it would not go down & I would throw up.

I felt the same way for almost 3 months nothing tasted good & I never felt like eating. I was told by my surgeon that it was normal for some people. Finally going into my 4 month everything starting working & I finally started feeling normal.

Good luck tomorrow I will be thinking of you!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
