Any ideas what could be wrong?



Recommended Posts

Here it is in a nutshell. I had a leak and went in for port replacement. That day I had some crackers and milk with no problem. The next day I could only get small sips of liquid down. Oh and by the way Dr. only put in a 1/2 CC and I was used to having a little over 2. I thought maybe there was a blockage and it was the weekend so I stayed on sips of liquid. Then all of a sudden it was going down and I ate some mashed pots with no prob. Then the next morning had same prob with nothing going down.. Then a few hours later I ate some oatmeal. Does anybody have any idea?

Oh yeah have had lap band of 1 1/2 years so I know what blockage and restriction feel like.. this seems different. I thought maybe nerves??? HELP!! Doc wants to take all liquid out and start all over when I talked to him on the phone and I KNOW that is not the problem.

You may be swollen, moreso in the morning than later in the day. If you are, then even 1/2 ccs could be too much for you even if you had more before when you weren't swollen.

Taking the fill out until the swelling goes down is pretty much the only answer, if that's the problem.

      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! 😞
