IBS & VSG

[christy38 17]

Anyone suffer from IBS and had the sleeve done?

I haven't been sleeved yet, but I suffer with IBS and the surgeon says there should be no issue with being sleeved.

I have mild to moderate ibs and I have had no issues but I'm only 9 days post op.

I have IBS and have been sleeved for 11 months. I have not had a single flare up since I had surgery. I think because we are very regulated on what we should eat, that I am not eating the stuff that would have set me off in the past. I have been very surprised actually.

Same, I'm little over 2mo post op and not having the issues I had in the past with my iBS

I am two months out and have not had any flare-ups since my surgery.

I am a month post op and have had a couple ibs issues. My doc said the sleeve doesn't fix ibs but some find it easier to control after surgery bc, as others have said, you're less likely to eat trigger foods. For me it's more about stress though, so I do still have issues.

I don't know if I have it? I have a bm usually runny (tmi) sorry about 30 min after I eat and it's color (tmi again) is not 'normal' but rather yellowish---- have it it forever mentioned to dr's but no one seems to care lol

Even after 2oz of egg or cheese I'm still doing it --- is that ibs? Do u take meds? Anything I can do or what type if dr do I go to

It could quite possibly be IBS but it also could be caused by an allergy to something you are eating regularly. It could be a dairy thing. I am 10 months out and I have a similar problem when I have dairy. If you are really concerned you need to sit down with your primary care physician and make him/her hear your concerns. That is what they are there for.
