Ok. So I had my surgery January 23rd this year. I have had severe abdominal pain nausea and vomiting since. Unbeknownst us my liver was stuck to my stomach. I just had it unstuck this Monday. Since then I have not been able to eat or drink much because my stomach hurts even worse right now. I'm trying my best! Now granted even before this latest surgery I was not able to eat or drink much. I need some advice I'm at my breaking point

Ok. So here is my deal. I had my gastric sleeve surgery on Jan 23rd this year. Since then I have been having issues getting in 64oz of fluids. The last couple days in July and roughly 3-4 at the beginning of August I was drinking a lot. I think I may have gotten in 55-58oz a day. But since the beginning of last week, I started having some really bad nausea and a pain in my chest and stomach. Everytime I ate or drank something I would suffer bad nausea and stomach pain. So for about the last 3 days I have not been drinking much. It hurts really bad. But anyway I was drinking water today maybe 10oz and just now I asked my husband for some juice and both my husband and my mom flipped out because I put the water away and I'm wondering have I done something wrong. I saw my weight loss doctor and told her about the little water I could drink and her advice was of course water was better and getting the 64oz would be great, but her goal was getting me to drink whatever I could keep down or that didn't upset my stomach. Has anyone else went through this? I mean I am totally alone. They don't understand how you feel after the surgery and all the issues I have, so most times I have to hold these feelings in and I'm jus tired.

For some reason my stomach only accepts cold drinks, with plenty of ice. I have had a rough time trying 2 drink warm or room temperature drinks. I'm scared 2 try again

The last part about the 8oz water bottle so that you don't feel overwhelmed. I never thought about that, but that is totally how I feel. Thank you for sharing[emoji16]

Hi, I am 27 years old and I had my gastric sleeve January 23rd 2017. I went in weighing 220lbs. I now weigh 163lbs and it's jus April 1st. I have found one thing odd though, I am always hungry. They told me that I would not feel hungry anymore but I do, all the time

How is everyone eating 2 months after Surgery? I am struggling and I have been since the surgery. I can barely eat anything at all. Certain liquids makes me nauseous. And certain foods make me throw up(but I feel like it's stuck in my chest before I throw up) Any advice? What am I doing wrong?

Ok so I had my gastric sleeve surgery January 23rd of this year. A week later I was in the hospital because my heart rate was elevated. They thought it was because of the pain. A few days later I started having pain in my left pelvic area, went to the ER and had 2 have emergency surgery 2 remove my left ovary, it had become horses and it was hemmoraghing. So I came home days later and my heart rate shot back up and I felt some pain in my stomach on the right side, so again I go 2 tha ER an found out I had pancreatitis. So again I had 2 have emergency surgery 2 remove my gallbladder. Once I came home this time we noticed that my heart rate was still high even with me resting. It made me dizzy like I wanted to faint. So I went to my cardiologist and he diagnosed me wit Atrial Flutter. Now in 2 more weeks I have to go 2 Pensacola and have a ablation done to my heart 2 get me to a normal beat with my heart. Now all of this could or could not have been a direct result of my sleeve surgery. But I do not regret tha sleeve surgery. The weight is coming off great, but I can't enjoy it fully because of all these other issues. Is anybody else having problems? But here are my results so far :

Thank you 4 sharing. An yes I'm terrified of this ablation but I want my heart 2 fixed.

Thank yu

I have to do a 3 month diet plan before my surgery, so my surgery won't be scheduled to around January. But my insurance is why I have a diet right now. But In order 4 them 2 pay 4 my surgery I have 2 complete this diet, n it shrinks tha liver. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
