SO MUCH FOAM
Hey ladies! Its been a minute since I've posted and I wanted to see if anyone has ever had this happen to them.
Here lately EVERYTHING is giving me these awful foamy burps and discomfort like things just aren't passing through my pouch like they usually do. Its like if I burp too hard, I will throw up. Even water sometimes gives me this THICK saliva that I have to puke up to relieve the discomfort. I'm over two years out and have never had this issue before.
I also seem to be waking up with what feels like intense heartburn. If I take a packet of nexium, it instantly feels better. Does this sound like an ulcer, and a necessary trip to my surgeon?
Thanks for any and all help.

That sounds like acid reflux to me - I get that a LOT. :(
I'd go talk to your surgeon, explain what's going on, and I'd bet you'll end up with an upper GI series. Especially the 'waking up with heartburn' thing - when that happens to me, it's because of acid reflux. Better to have it looked at than not!
Good luck! ((HUGS))

Golly that sounds awful! I hope you get relief soon--but do agree that calling the surgeon is what I would do!
