Help - can't eat!

[lee bee 2]

Please help - I am ten days out. Last night I had diarrhea and now I am fighting to eat or drink anything. My stomach feels very sour and I have had more diarrhea. Any suggestions?

um... i am 10 days out as well and i am not allowed soft food till next Wed. what did your doctor tell you to do?

I am only allowed some liquids and Protein drinks. i have some dumping here and there but its getting better.

maybe call your doctor and see what they say

I am allowed to have pureed food. But I am even having trouble with Jello. I will call my doctor if it doesn't improve. But, I don't think it is dumping - more like the flu.

Having diarrhea is pretty common in the first two weeks... But if you are feeling ill, as in the flu you should check in with your doctor especially if you are not taking in liquids

Good luck

If you have frequent diarrhea you should make a concerted effort to increase your Fluid intake - and I know this is hard. I drank a lot of strained egg flower Soup in your stage and that was easy to get down. You may even try some Gatorade for the short term. I hope you find relief soon, and do see the doc if you think you have the flu.

Honestly I would call your Dr. I would not wait.... Hope you feel better soon!!!

Sounds like a stomach bug unrelated to your sleeve. Can you get fluids down? That's the most important.

Thanks for all of the advice. I am calling my doctor.
