Upset Stomach :(



Recommended Posts

Woke up with a gnarly stomach ache this morning and it's not going away. I'm hoping it's just "I need to go" but it's worrisome. I'm at 8 weeks post op so ordinarily I shouldn't be having nausea should I?

No, probably just caught a bug or something. Did you introduce any new foods?

I don't believe so. Lots of rumbling, burping and u know, etc... I had to leave work because the nausea was too much.

I would. I use to work for Bariatric surgeons... and got phone calls like this all the time. I would say "I am 8 weeks out and am concerned about this stomach ache" then they can keep it in your records as well.

It may just be a bug, but never hurts to let your surgeon know youre concerned. Were you sleeved in the US?

Yes I was sleeved in the US. I will let them know. Can't hurt that's for sure. I'm hoping it's just something basic, thanks for the reply.

It probably is, I guess for me my first thought was call your surgeon when you said there was nausea. Throwing up post-op can do a number on your new stomach.

I hope you're ok! Keep us updated!

Not to be too TMI but do you think you might be constipated. Sometimes, you can get that feeling when you are backed up!!

I still can get nauseous if my Vitamins don't sit well or new foods (but you said that isn't the case for you this time).

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
