Vomiting and stretching
Hi everyone, I had surgery 5/12/05 I eighed 400 pounds the morning of surgery, this morning I weighed 280. I'm happy about the weight loss, but I've had 4 endoscopies with 3 stretches and the 4th scope they discovered an ulcer. I went a couple of weeks without throwing up and I was starting to eat solid food. Well, I'm throwing up again and having a lot of pain. I'm also having alot of nausea, which is new. Has anyone else had these problems? This is all getting tiresome.
Roni,
I've had 3 endoscopes done. First one was at 2 1/2 months, second two were in the same week at 3 1/2 months. Been fine since then. The third time he took out a staple that was poking up almost all the way and causing food to catch on it and back up the other way. Haven't had many problems since. Now I just eat too much at times except when it comes to heavy protein like steak - still can only eat about 1 1/2 ounce at a time. I say check back with your surgeon. Something else may be the culpret!
