Yes, I also have been sick. My Dr prescribed Emend. It really worked. I had to pay $50 for 1 pill, but it seemed to get my stomach in order. I also still take Reglan, Pepsid and Zophran.

Constipation and PMS but no period!
melj7 replied to lucky1gg33's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes, all of the above! I am so down this morning about it also. Constipation is horrible, I've gained 2.5 lbs, no weight loss in 2 weeks, and no period. Also no energy and sharp pain in my lower left stomach. And, my family is staying far from me cuz I'm ready to go crazy. This has to get bettet! -
Feeling really discouraged...
melj7 replied to SlimJill's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This morning I wanted to throw the scale at something or someone. I can't imagine how I could gain 2.5 lbs not eating more that 550 call a day. This is so discouraging! I am at yet another emotional low in this process. List 25 before surgery on 5/22, lost 10 lbs the week after surgery and now going into my 3rd week, no weight loss, but a gain. I also have a new pain in my lower left stomach this morning. I still have no energy. -
How long did your incisions take to heal?
melj7 replied to rosieuk's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
All of my incisions healed except for one that is high up on my stomach. I believe the belly band iritated it and it became infected. I'm 2 weeks out and and the rest look great. I'm on antibiotics for the one, I really hopes it heals quick. -
I had the lap band since 2009, I stared out losing weight great, then life happened, I was depressed and started gaining weight. I could never tolerant having the band inflated anymore as I would only vomit. So on May 22nd, 2015 I had my lap band out and switched to a sleeve. I did great right after surgery until last weekend. I can not drink anything. I went today for a IV due to being so dehydrated. I am sick to my stomach all day and night, have the worst heartburn and I'm just miserable!!! I am on reglan, zophran and pepsid for the nausea and heartburn, but it does not help!!! I'm starting to regret my decision, although I do not miss the lap band. Has anyone had these symptoms and are they going to be forever? Please if anyone has any advise please share.
