More Susceptable To Food Poisioning With Vsg?

[CaliKat 153]

I was feeling just fine and dandy and then I went to the fridge and took 2-3 gulps of milk right from the carton (don't judge ) and shortly after I swollowed and was putting it back I realized that it tasted a bit off and the expiration date had since passed (like.... Significantly).

Now- about 20 min later I'm sick, shaky and finally made myself throw up the sour bile. After throwing up I feel a bit better (stomach still hates me tho) and am trying to drink some Poweraide Zero.

I prior to VSG I had an Iron stomach... I could eat anything and roll with the food poisioning punches, but lately it seems I am much more sucepptable to tainted food. Does anyone know if this is common? To get sick easier after VSG?

Btw- I'm almost 7 months post-op, and it's not the slimes or drinking too fast.

sorry to giggle a bit - but I can't imagine that just because we are sleeved we are more susceptible to 'sour' foods and such - we may notice it sooner than when we had our original stomachs - but i don't think there is any correlation there at all.....

sorry you had a hard time with the milk.....
