Any Doctor of Yours Hate Your Choice?

My PCP is the one who mentioned the surgery to me the first time. He had it about 2 years ago- very handy when I need support-he's "been there, done that!". I am so sorry for those that don't get support from them. Perhaps it's time to consider a new doctor! -
I had lightheadness early on when I was weak. Dizzy when dehydrated. But, the fluctuating hearing is what concerns me. I am an audiologist. This may be something completely different. If the symptoms don't resolve soon with the help of your PCP I recommend you seek a consult with an ENT. Good luck!

I was on Celebrex before surgery and had to go off it. I switched to Lyrica, but just started taking it consistently 1 mo ago (I am 3mo post-op). Losing the weight has helped-I can excercise more which helps my fibro too. Pain has been pretty manageable.

Surgery 5/11 Starting weight: 239 Surgery date: 222 Current weight: 188 Struggling with progressing out of puréed foods! Tummy doesn't tolerate a lot at a time or variety! -
This is my first post. Surgery was 5/11 I've lost 42 lbs total (25 since surgery) I am struggling big time! I've had severe nausea. GERD has improved. At 5 weeks out I should be eating mushies by now, but everytime I try a puree or mushie I end up vomiting it backup- Just in the past five days I've gotten sick each day. My pouch cannot handle much capacity wise. I can only drink one 8-oz of Protein shake a day (2oz at a time). I think I have thrush which makes everything taste terrible, including Water. I am weak, tired and frustrated...I know I need to get more protein in but I cannot take in anymore!!!
