Upper GI found something



Recommended Posts

I had the Sleeve in 2015. I have been having issues with acid reflux and muscle cramping in my stomach. I was working on each issue separately but I decided to get an upper GI because I have been considering converting to the bypass to fix the reflux. When they did the GI they saw something they didn't recognize. It looks like a half deflated balloon above my stomach. It could be the thing that is coming out of stomach and causing my pain. Does anyone know what this could be? Fixing my reflux may now be on the back burner.

I have seen 3 doctors and none thought it was a hernia. The doctor that did the GI said he didn't see a hernia either. Something comes out and it causes a severe muscle cramp it is like a charlie horse in my stomach.

Well they did pay attention after all, so glad he says he can fix it and also give you your bypass. Have you gotten a firm date or is he going to go for a day when he doesn't have a lot of other things that need his attention?😝

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

      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! 😞
