2 Mos Out And Vomiting

[lisawoods 0]

Hello, I had gastric sleeve on Oct 11 and I have some complications. I was unable to swallow so I had to have two ballon dilation to open up my esophagus. That is better but this weekend I have had consistent nausea and vomiting. It does not matter what I eat it comes back up. I vomit at least four times a day. Since I have had the surgery I have not had one single meal. I have been on liquids for the past two months. My body is tired and I am very frustrated to point where I cry everyday. Has someone experience this and how did you get throught this.

Contact your surgeon sounds like you might need another dialation.

Two things:

Maybe consult a different bariatric surgeon. If two dilatations did not work then maybe something else is on the horizon. What does your surgeon say?

Or is could be physiological. I was unable to eat for 5 weeks because I was afraid of regaining weight. Anything I put down came right back up too. So, have you tried applesauce? One teaspoon, that is all. Let it sit for a hour before you put in one more. If this works then try a tablespoon later. If you are good with that next day try a teaspoon of cottage cheese. Move up to a tablespoon. If you can do this, next blend the (*&^ out of some Protein packed Soup. Once you are okay with keeping down, leave a few very small chunks.

Slow and easy. Good luck, I hope you find resolution soon.
