Sleeved and can't stop vomiting



Recommended Posts

Hey guys' date=' I was sleeved on Wed. January 30th and I don't have much pain, just itchiness on the incision sites, but I am vomiting every 2-3 hours. Its mainly bile. Is this normal and how much longer will this go on? I tried sipping Water but I can't hold it down.[/quote']

For me this happen for the 2 days I was in the hospital and 3 days when I got home I dont know if it was the anesthsia or the morphine but that was the worst for me as well other than that no real pain! Congrats on ur surgery each day will get better trust me!

I was heaving and nauseus the day before and day of my two week follow up wasnt sure why i knew it wasnt from a new food or med, so they gave me a prescription that helped a lot. Then today (yesterday was my two week follow up) i woke up with a 100 degree fever and killer sore throat. So i would recommend just be cautious it is flu season after all and some of the flu symptoms mimic a leak stay in contact with your doctor.

I am scheduled to be sleeved Feb 12 and I am so FREAKED out about getting the flu!! I have to imagine THAT would not be fun...(and I don't want my surgery postponed) Yeah, Chubarella I would totally call your Dr.

I know what you mean, I felt a little fluish before my surgery but went through with it anyway. (Started feeling ok when they put in my iv) I ended up with a nasty chest cold or bronchitis or something the day after surgery so I was coughing an awful lot like with every other breath, with the fresh incisions it was miserable. I would recommend getting a lot of Vitamins and be pro active avoid anything or anyone that might get you sick! Take some emergen-c. :) take care of yourself and good luck.

I am almost a month post op and still when I eat something non liquid I vomit. I am on pureed foods, but they do not stay down. I told my dr, and he said drink slower, but this is something happening without drinking. If it is not normal, then what is it? I know 'call my doctor' let us know that this part is understood, can anyone give me any additional advice as to the possible implications of vomiting post sleeve, off medications?

I am also a month out and just recently stopped vomiting with everything that entered me. I have called my doctor multiple times and he doesn't seem to care. He told me that what I am doing doesn't come from the surgery so it has to be something else and I should come in for a cat scan... Ugh NO

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
