overtheedge 2 Posted July 7, 2012 I am 4 days post op and progressing well. I am sipping liquids, Protein, broth, and popsicles. I'm belching a lot and have the stomach rumbling after every sip and sometimes pain. I have hypoglycemia and that those symptoms are what I'm feeling now. I'm trying to stick with "doctor's orders" and so far, so good. If anyone has experienced this what did you do to help the symptoms? My second day of pre-op liquid diet I ate an egg and then everything settled down I was able to complete my 2 week liquid diet. I have some time before I'm supposed to introduce puree foods......is there something I can do to help with these symptoms? Nausea meds are not helping and the Protein isn't helping either. Thanks so much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Star1221 270 Posted July 7, 2012 The gas (both up and down) is completely normal. Also, the weird gurgles and squeaks too. It will all start calming down about a week out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
overtheedge 2 Posted July 7, 2012 i'll try the applesauce and see if that helps. I just want the hypoglycemia symptoms to stop. I know that everything is on track......just need to find a way to get through this part. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
