3 days post op and fizzy stomach



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

I am 3 day post op. I have been trying to take in my fluids with not much success. Whenever I sip my Fluid I can feel it run down my throat and into my stomach. As soon as it hits my stomach it feels like a golf ball is stuck right above my stomach, Then I get strange noises from my stomach and it begins to fizz like when you open a coke, Next the fluid I just sipped comes back up midway. I have to keep swallowing to get it to go down. I can only do 2 sips in 30 mins, Also my heart has been having lots of palpatations. So much that its wakes out of sleep. Has anyone else been through this?? My Dr and nurse looked at me crazy when I told them this.

Thanks for reading and happy losing

Wow! You described EXACTLY the feeling I had running down my throat etc to the tee! I was concerned I had a leak so I’ve been taking temp regularly. If your techs cardia you might want to get check ASAP. Call your doctor and tell him tachy and check you temp. The only difference is I can sip fine and goes down but I feel every inch of it. Today is day 4 for me and I don’t feel it as much. Our stomachs are healing so we will feel and hear unusual obsure things going on.  It was a relief to see someone had this same description. But seriously thinks to watch for are tachy and fever. I’m down 20 pounds I’m in awe and so excited!! Hopefully tomorrow it will be less noticeable swallowing as it did for me. Good luck to you!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
