kcinpa 159 Posted February 21, 2013 This happens to me if I did not get enough Protein or fluids the day before, if you did though I would call your dr to be safe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
minnie78 17 Posted February 21, 2013 How many Protein Shakes would u drink per day?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnlatte 1,232 Posted February 21, 2013 Typically - Low blood sugar, dehydration and low consumption of Protein. Give your Dr or Nutritionist a call and see what they say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnlatte 1,232 Posted February 21, 2013 How many Protein shakes would u drink per day?? You should be following what your Dr. told you for your Protein consumption. Every Dr. does it differently. Typically it is between 40-60 grams of protein. Doesn't have to be all shakes unless you are on liquids only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarah78_RN 66 Posted February 21, 2013 Happened to me about 4 days post op. Some Protein helped tremendously. But when in doubt check with your surgeon and nut Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amytug 996 Posted February 21, 2013 Minnie, premier Protein seems to be a winner on the boards. I love them as well. Messaging you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
akirk 20 Posted February 22, 2013 I have had this same problem for 5 weeks. But I was unable to get fluids or food down, only around 2 oz at a time. My surgeon just did an EGD yesterday to stretch open parts of my sleeve that had narrowed too much. Trying increasing your Fluid and Protein intake that should help.
