I have had a tummy problem for almost 2 days now.. am over 4 weeks post op and have had had no problems like this... I am not sure if I caught a "bug" or if this is the sour stomach I hear about occasionally. Any food recommendations when your tummy just feels icky and like you have the beginning of the flu but it doesn't get worse.. just stays the same? Yesterday I got in one Protein Shake and some crackers but that was it.. previous to this I have been eating really well so am concerned...

I ate a lot of yogurt early on. I would switch between Yoplait Light, and Okios Greek Yogurt with Splenda. When I did have tummy issues, I would eat yogurt 2-3 times a day. It's the only thing that makes me feel better.

Make sure you take your nexium 30 minutes before you eat anything in the morning. It could just be moving to more solid food and excess acid. The nexium takes 30 minutes before it prevent too much acid procuction.

Go back to easier levels of food to give your stomach a rest.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
