Default Possible complication?

I have been having vomiting for no apparent reason randomly for almost three weeks now. I saw my surgeon last week and I am having an Upper GI on Monday and then possibly an EGD. If strictures are ruled out, then we look elsewhere. I am worried. I thought it was the flu at first but I wake up in te middle of the night and have to throw up even. It is hit and miss, no rhyme or reason. I have overeaten and know that feeling and this is not it.

I was concerned about pancreatitis since it can be a common thing with lupus (which I have as well) and I am hoping it is not that.

It is so frustrating since I can eat and then a little later, feel unwell and throw up. Once I throw up, it is hard to eat for some time. I also am having a lot of acid reflux despite prevacid.

Just wanted to vent and see if any of you have had issues like this?
Thanks!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

((((HUGS)))) Hang in there.
Your surgeon is taking all the precautions, so I'm sure whatever is at the root of the problem, he'll be able to find out.

The surgeon doing another EGD is the best thing. Im glad hes on top of it. I had problems to along about the same time as you after my surgery. Mine was due to my stomach not waking up to digest what I was eating. Its rare but happens. Let us know how it goes for you. The EGD as you know doesnt hurt what so ever so that is a great thing. I do hope this finds you feeling better.

Thanks to you all! Prayers are definitely appreciated and I will update when I know more. I have the Upper GI on monday and they have not scheduled the EGD yet so it should be this next week though.

Thanks! I am so happy to have friends here!
