Hi all. I am 3 1/2 months post-op from vsg surgery. I had surgery 8/16/2010. Right after surgery for 2 weeks I was soooo sick and could hardly stand the nausea and pain. I went back to the Dr, he gave me different nausea and pain meds. Within a week I was so much better and felt almost normal again. I have been doing well until the last 2 weeks. I haven't changed my diet but have become intolerant of stuff I was able to eat a month ago. Sometimes it feels like my stomach is turning flips. I am also feeling so tired, I think that is from fighing the nausea and not eating much. I have now gone back to eating chicken noodle soup, popsicles, jello and mashed potatoes. I have noticed in the last couple of days if I have a glass of white wine at night It seems to calm my stomach and the nausea goes away for me to go to bed. Is this just more adjusting and healing time and it will get better with time or should I be worried. Has anyone else had this problem? If so can you tell me what helped. I am just tired of being sick to my stomach.

The only thing I have tried when it gets really bad is Pepto or Tums but not on regular basis. I think I may have an acid problem because sometimes when I haven't eaten yet it feels like my stomach is eating on itself. So I eat then get sick. I don't throw up and haven't. I don't eat after wine but it does seem to relax and calm my stomach. Did you write to someone else about red wine not being good for some reason? I will talk to my Dr about the acid reducers. I have read several posts about how much others are eating and there is no I can eat that much. What do you eat on a normal day? Thanks for talking to me.

Thanks for the reply. I have an Dr appointment on 11/17 will check with him.
