I'm 2.5 wks post-op and I feel horrible. I have no energy the gas pains are getting worst. All smells are making me nauseous. Matter of fact everything makes me nauseous. I am dry heaving all the time to the point where I am scared to eat. Just two days ago I was fine at my doctors appt. Now I feel like I'm 7 days post-op again. Please tell me someone else has been thru this n does it get better. I want to get back to work already

It sounds as though you have had a sudden change for the worse. If that is so, please call your doctor.

I spoke wit my doctor she prescribed me some tabs for nausea which has worked so far. My gas have subsided a lil but i still feel weak. My doc told me to drink Gatorade to keep hydrated

Just a lil update I was hospitalized on Saturday Sept 1st for dehydration n severe acid reflux. I was discharged n now I'm back in the the hospital for dehydration. I drank the contrast so they could check for a leak no leak so I am happy about that. My doctor said sometimes something in ur stomach or esophagus gets inflamed which causes you not to be able to hold anything down. I am 3 weeks post op i havent even had mushies yet. liquids cant even stay down.But some ice cold apple juice sure taste good lol. Anyway i cant leave the hospital till I'm able to keep my liquids down sucks to be me i guess

Sorry your not feeling well! If cold apple juice is tasting good, and it isn't bothering your sleeve, keep sipping it! Hang in there, it WILL get better!

So I am finally being discharged today after 1 wk in this hospital. I was severely dehydrated and had severe acid reflux. Then they thought I had pancreatitis which was a false alarm my pancreas was really inflammed from me not being to hold anything in my stomach. I have learned my lesson Im going to drink until I cant drink no more. By the way im 4 wks post op and today was the first day I have had pureed food and it actually stayed down so congrats to me on that milestone

      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.
