Hello,
Sorry of how this all unfolded. I too was vomiting a lot. It was really hard to keep things down. However, I just got 1cc fluid taken out to see if that helps me out. I was given the option to get the sleeve done or the full gastric bypass. I don't want either of those, so I just said I would try it out with less fluid to see if I can get a hold of everything. So far so good. I notice that I am hungry a lot but, I am re-teaching myself to eat at certain times and to be satisfied without the heavy snacking. Again, so far so good. The band is reversible, all others are not. I just worry that if I was to get anything else, and it doesn't do anything for me, that...that's it. Nothing else can be done. The band can be taken out for a few months then put back in and start over. That's the only option I think I might go with. I love my band. The band and I haven't always agreed with each other, but right now we are on great terms.
If the hernia was removed, why is it that the sleeve is an option? It would be that to make sure you don't drink anything before you eat, at least about 30 min and after. That way you aren't throwing up. Chew food till it's liquid in your mouth, don't take big bites, nothing that is dry. Have you tried changing up things?
I am just wanting to know a little more is all, not judging or mean to make you feel as if you don't know what you are doing.
Be blessed,
Debbie
