Hello all,
I’m one year, two months out from surgery (SADI-S) and had my first case of a stomach flu this past Saturday.
Bad diarrhea, and felt bad for two days, aches, cramps, etc… typical noro type virus.
My issue is while the icky, sick feelings went away, the diarrhea has stayed. This is my first stomach flu since surgery and I’m wondering if the recovery time is longer because of my different plumbing? I don’t want to be an alarmist and run to the doctor if the recovery time is longer for bariatric patients? Maybe just takes longer to reestablish the Flora in the gut?
I have tried modifying my diet as best I can along with Imodium A.D., but I just can’t firm things up, LOL.
Any advice or experience would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance.
