From Feeling Great To Feeling Blah!



Recommended Posts

So im almost three weeks out, and I feel nausea all the time but I don't throw up. Nearly everything I eat makes me feel sick and I know I havent been getting in enough. I havent been getting sick from soft foods when I ate this but now I really dont have the appetite for the limited options. The Protein Shake I love just about makes me gag. I wont lie I was not good at getting vitamins/omeprazole in this week and that could be the problem. Any help is welcome.

Vitamins and your ppi are really important, vitamins will help with energy and such. What sorts of foods can you have at this stage in your plan? Have you tried unflavored Protein in coffee or hot chocolate? That helped me alot in the beginning.

Try taking your vits at bedtime with some yogurt to coat your stomach. Try introducing foods that get you nauseous at a very slow pace. This is hard work to get to know our body. I have been very lucky with no complications or nauseousness. However, I do under eat my sleeve so I don't get uncomfortable. Keep trying, it will get better when you take your PPI. :huh:

      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?
