Hi, Thanks for you reply. Have you seen your surgeon? How old is your surgery? Are you eating solid foods at dinner? I think I started eating solid foods too soon.

I'm 7 weeks post Gastric Sleeve and I'm experiencing constant. It feels like my food is sitting in the middle of my chest. I have pain between my shoulder blades more on the left. I can't vomit. Can anyone give me some insight? I'm calling my surgeon tomorrow.

There's a 100% Whey drink that has 40 grams of protein. It' a flavored drink that was recommended by a nutritious at my support group. I' 7 weeks post surgery and I' experiencing nausea too. I'm calling my surgeon tomorrow. I' taking Prilosec and Zantac with minimal relief. -
Has anyone used Isopure for protein? I'm drinking it daily and wondering if anyone else has tried or using it?

I'm 1 month post sleeve. After small meals, I feel like I'm having acid reflux symptoms or want to throw up. No matter how little I eat, it feels like the food stops. I'm thirsty all the time for Water or cold fruits and juices. Initially I felt very weak and tired, however that is going away. Nothing else to tell. I was wondering if anyone out there have or had the above symptoms? BarbG

Thanks Renee. I'm taking Zantac (liquid form), however not regularly and this morning, I took an over the counter Prilosec. I have prescription Prilosec, but capsules are too large to swallow at this time.

Thanks. I had reflux prior to surgery and my Doc prescribed a liquid antiacid, but it doesn't seem to help. I'm thinking about going back to the doctor. I'm thirsty all the time. If I drink too much Water then I don't have room for my meals. Any suggestions on how to quench my thirst? Hi Barb, My doc prescribed Prevacid from the get-go. I have never had an acid problem but he said it can come on with a vengeance and he was right. I didn't take the medicine, and sure enough about 6 days post op it arrived. Now I take the medicine and have had no more problems. Give Doc a call, sounds like you're gonna need it. Good luck to you
