Unfortunately..Eventually.. I have to take my self in to the hospital to check everythings okay as I know I would advice the same if it were me , but I hate hospitals, but will go on Monday.

I am not feeling so good.. I through up quite aggressively yesterday evening .. Thought everything was fine, today I had a bite of food hurt my tummy made me feel sick, smelled my coffee i was about to be sick of the smell. last night i thought i tasted blood in my throat then I forgot about it , today its hard to explain my mouth is not bleeding but there is a weird blood wiff inside of my mouth that feels like its coming from not in my mouth. It is like my chest hurts but it doesnt its inside. like my throat and further down.. on the left but it is for sure inside, not a heartattack or anything. I woke up feeling so rotten and still feel rotten.

I am abit sad and scared somethings wrong , and think maybe i should wait to see if its okay, no problems swollowing. i did my googling and nothing came up.

I am scared.

How come you're waiting until Monday? I wonder if when they intubated you if they scratched your throat, but that wouldn't explain the nausea I don't think. Ugh I'd go and get it looked at. Feel better.

Everything started after my....puke situation. It is a hard situation.. Knowing your health is at risk if you do not do the surgery due to already having issues, and your mind that is not quite were it needs to be, but it might have never been anyway.

It sounds like an ulcer or acid reflux. What about going to a walk in clinic?

I am not able to till Monday, I was thinking about a walk in but they wont be able to do any tests etc, so I might present to the 'emergency room' we call a and e, its not acid reflux I can be sure of that. I do think I damaged something maybe the acid coming up from puking? but i literaly feel the liquid burning going down then reaching my stomach, that is not possible? i did not think i have no idea but i feel worse, but I will be honest and explain how i am feeling when i see them whenever that will be if i get the courage to go lol . I honestly have to be on my death bed usually to bother the emergency room , I have attended my doctors office once about something ele t that i waited and waited for and they ended up them calling an ambulance , as obviously i was needing to be in hosp, but i hate the thought of wasting peoples time thats my problem

Look, I am a hospital nurse....you are NOT wasting anyone's time. That is why we are there, to help people. You really need to be evaluated.

Thank you - *Trying for me* I am having a little conflict here. But I do hope I do go on Monday. The feelings I am feeling are really not nice. The chest in combination with the left side of my LOWER LOWER throat, ( do I even have a lower throat?) Is so strange.

I am abit scared as the vomit I did/had was so violent and forcefull that if i had staples to pop it would have done so .

Its so easy to think " your fine , but i realise i am not super human.. :(

Thank you for responding!

You should go right away. Your pouch could be bleeding. Not trying to scare you but someone else posted about bleeding and not being able to eat and that's what she found out at the hospital.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
