I had bariatric sleeve surgery on May 28,2014. as of today I have lost 92.5 pounds. I am feeling great, look fantastic, no more COPD problems.
The only negative thing I have noticed is that my IBS has seem to gotten worse. I seem to get bad gas pains and pass gas (at times horrible smell) and diarrhea more than ever since my surgery. I have tried several Probiotics and gas relievers and none seem to work. I was told that I may be eating too much Protein. So I tried eating Protein Bars with less protein and still no change.
Can the surgery make this horrible IBS worse for life? or is there something else I can try.....
Please if you are or have experienced this problem since your surgery please let me know. I would really appreciate it.
Thank you.
