mariemadeline 12 Posted February 20, 2012 I was wondering how everyone deals with getting ill after having VSG surgery. I had strep throat last week and this week I have a cold. I do not feel like eating anything because my throat is hurting so much. I am drinking a ton of Water and tea. The only thing is, in the past I have always put honey in my tea when I was sick. Has anyone had issues with honey? What do you do when you get sick? I feel so miserable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KellyL 173 Posted February 20, 2012 I'm sorry you're sick, that must be horrible. I have been pretty luck with staying welll since my sleeve. I did have a little allergy issue a wk or so ago, but it didn't last but a few days. I just drank a lot of warm fluids, but I didn't use honey. I use stevia in most everything to sweeten. I hope you feel better soon and I would check in with your Dr if you aren't better soon. Take Care! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
