Nausea - when will it go away?
InThisLife replied to skl228's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I am now 28 days post-op and the nausea is worse. I have been re-admitted twice and DON'T want that to happen again if I can help it! I have been put back on liquids so hopefully that helps. The nausea meds really don't work for me. I am battling discouragement. -

Looking for a Gastric Bypass Mentor / Buddy
InThisLife replied to Leelee Macdee's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Do you find that one day a food is okay and then the next day it makes you very sick? That's been my problem. I've been getting in my protein and liquids okay but almost all food tastes sour to me. I am three weeks out from surgery... -
Never Fear! Mentor Here!

Me too. -
I am not vomiting from the vitamins but they make me very nauseated. I use the once a day chewable bariatric ones . I am trying splitting them in half and eating them slowly over a half hour or so and that has helped slightly. I was told by Cleveland Clinic that I could never use gummies as they aren't absorbed. I plan on asking about other choices at my next appointment. Has anyone tried the liquid vitamin machine that looks like a keurig that uses disks? ( I think it's called Tespo)

Bypass for less than 100 lbs
InThisLife replied to Barbara1972's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I've had terrible GERD for years. I too have less than 100 pounds to loose but I have medical complications..( two hernias, one of which was giant along with gastroparesis and more) my doctor told me that the RNY was the best choice for me and that if I didn't lose and keep off the weight my hiatal hernia could return in as little as three months. I am two weeks post op and although it's a struggle, I'm glad I made this choice. -

You would become very dehydrated, which can be dangerous.. deadly even...

Getting close to surgery
InThisLife replied to Hardscratch's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Me too. My gastric bypass surgery is June 28th I have two hernias that will be repaired at that same time as well so I'm a little nervous about all of that taking place at once. I start my pre-op diet the 14th. I've been having health issues since January and have been on a partial liquid diet since then so I'm hoping that helps. Best wishes!
