Throwing up blood after 6 months



Recommended Posts

Hello guys

SO I am 6 months post Gsleeve

Yesterday after eating I started to feel pain

I thought maybe did not chew enough .. so needed to throw up

Pain escalated from 4 to 8 in minutes

Nothing to throw up.. but still felt bad

No medicine helped at that point ..

Couldn't lie down or sit or even stand or walk ..every position made me feel worse

Blood was brown and red ..

It was 3rd time this happening .. but not as much blood .

Doctors told me when it happened b4 .it was normal just need to chew better or eat slowly and this is gases case in colon or something..

This time it was more than 3 hours .. I felt it was eternity

Please go to the er NOW!! Do not wait with this. Throwing up blood is very serious. If you don’t have someone to take you please call an ambulance.

please update us when you are able to do so. I will be keeping you in my thoughts and praying for a good outcome.

it is disturbing that your dr said it’s normal and did not check you out to see what was going on. I do hope that you head to the er and have them take a look. Throwing up blood is never normal.

Bright red blood would usually indicate that it is coming from somewhere in your throat. Brown and like coffee grounds is usually partially digested blood from the stomach. It could indicate an ulcer. I would phone your Dr and see what he/ she advises. Usually blood looks like a lot more than it actually is, a little goes a long way especially when mixed with saliva or digestive fluids.

I would go to the ER. If you don't have insurance for that, I would call your surgeon asap. I hope it's nothing serious, but I'm worried about you!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
