i am 2 months out, and sometimes i vomit without having ate anything for a long time ( of course no real vomit/liquid comes out because my stomach is empty, but i still do it as if i were to throw up something) i hope you understood what i meant.

i dont know if its my stomach enzymes filling it up or whats the deal.

it happened 4 times so far

GERD? Have you talked to your bariatric team about this issue?

i did for 15 days as the doctor instructed now i am done with them

Maybe you are going to require them for a longer period; check this out with your surgeon and staff.

I agree. I usually get it from dumping, but the nausea runs after for at least 6 to 8 hours for me.

i once went 5 days without food, on water only and my body kept trying to throw up ?

Not to sound mean but I think we have a " Puke Switch" that seems to get stuck,in the ON position.??

I’ve experienced the same and still do sometimes (I’m 7 years post-op gastric sleeve). Could be GERD, which I have. Definitely check with your surgeon.

Keep trying to drink, especially your protein. You don’t want to get dehydrated. It’s the #1 reason WLS patients return to the hospital. You may also feel fatigued and burn muscle.

Gagging on an empty stomach is very painful, I know the feeling! I’m sorry, I hope you get some help soon.

but i dont experience heartburn or chest pain, could it still be GRED?

just feel nausea similar to the one i get after eating, and my stomach capacity is less.

do i need to take my PPI pills everyday or only before meals? because my instructions say take twice a day before meals. but sometimes i go the whole day without eating so i dont take it.

There is something called silent reflux (Laryngopharyngeal Reflux or LPR, for short) which does not manifest in the same symptoms as GERD. LPR is harder to diagnose and treat. I’m no doctor, but at 2 months out, you should definitely be eating better! Please consult with your surgeon and follow their instructions.

I really hope you get help and feel better soon. Keep us updated please.
