I had a fill about 4 weeks ago. Everything has been ok. But today I think I grazed all day. I just have been really hungry. For supper I ate a biscuit. I didn't chew well and it got stuck. I threw up and felt better. An hour later I was hungry again so I tried some oatmeal. 3 hours later and I am still throwing that up. not all of the time but a little here and there. I can feel it in my throat. I have had no other problems until today. Do you think I just over ate and it got stuck? Is there an overfill? I am soooo sleepy and can't go to bed because I can't lay down. Is it swollen or something? Please help.

When you get food stuck and vomit you usually have swelling after. For this reason, most Dr's have us go on a liquid diet for at least 24 hours and then soft foods until you feel like you can eat normally again. Usually, we are told not to take ibuprofen, but it s often suggested for swelling. Perhaps you could get some children liquid if you don't want to swallow pills or get the gel caps and try that if you feel the swelling is really bad. If you are still worried tomorrow or having a lot of pain, call your Dr. I've gone through this a few times. It sucks, but a day on liquids usually settles everything down, Good luck to you!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
