Hi everyone! I had the gastric sleeve over a year ago. For the past 2 weeks I've had really bad pains on my left side of my stomach. For the last 2 days, along with the pain I'm having neon yellow diarrhea(sorry i know T.M.I ) I also lost my appitie and in the last two weeks, I've lost 15lbs. I don't know whats going on. Please if anyone had same or similar symptoms, please help.:help:

Hello! I've been in the hospital for 3 days and they haven't found out whats wrong. I'm hoping I get out today ! I will keep you all posted. Thank you for all your support! !

Hello! The only time i felt nauseous, was right after surgery.But i never threw up. But to this day, if i eat too much i will throw up white stuff (sorry T.M.I) I had my surgery on June 28,2010. I've had a few other surgeries, this was the only time i felt nauseous after. Good Luck!!:teeth_smile:

Thanks so much for all the advise. Ive tried alot of different foods and Im much happier. Thanks again!!

Ok so im 4 weeks out and already am tired of the foods im eating. I eat apple sauce, beans, mash potatoes and my protein shake. So today i ate a tortilla and it went down fine. Is that a bad thing or is it normal at 4 weeks? Also is drinking ice tea not good? should i still blend my foods? Im so confused!:thumbup1: thanks for helping .......:thumbup:

Hello... I had the sleeve done 3 weeks ago and before that I was in the same place you are. I had my mind set on getting the band but I went to a class with a couple doctors and they changed my mind. They basically told me that the band is only really ment to stay in for 2 years and they showed pics of people who had it and their body rejected the band. It was so nasty and that's what changed my mind. But any surgery you choose to get ,you have to remember , the surgery is just a tool .. It will only work if you make it work. Good luck !!!

I took my throid pills at the hospital. It went down fine.

For a good protein drink.... try Special K Protein shake.
