Vomiting...There was a reason!
Dec 15, 2011
I am currently in the hospital. For 2 weeks I have only been able to drink 20oz of fluid and when I eat mush 1/3 cup I was vomiting (I blogged my food journal). I was admitted for dehydration and vomiting everyday was not normal. The Upper GI showed a blockage where the Lap Band was located on the top portion of the stomach. The 3 sips of contrast was not moving. Then I had a EGD with dilation thinking they could dilate the area. The GI doctor said I had a kink and no dilation was done. I have scar tissue around the stomach where the band was located and the scaring is playing a tug of war. I will be having surgery tomorrow 12/16 to have all the scar tissue removal and they believe my kink with smooth out.Wow, what a journey I have been on. I had no idea this was going to happen. I believe my abdominal pain of the left side and my attacks were caused from the scar tissue. It's the only thing that's makes any since.
