symorrah 3 Posted August 30, 2012 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

symorrah 3 Posted September 4, 2012 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

symorrah 3 Posted September 10, 2012 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 1 samsmom reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
