It will be 5 weeks post op tomorrow, sleeved on the 6th basically no issues some gas pain here and there, trying to determine what was full feeling and gas difference and night time meds,Vitamins would upset my tummy.

But last week started to notice upset stomach with Protein Shakes so thought mb drank to fast etc as of Friday late afternoon got Diarrhea and very bad pain and cramps. By Sat still had all of it and started to throw up anything and everything would make my tummy hurt and give me pain on top of the cramps.

Monday called doc said to drink Gatorade every 10 min continue with Vitamins.< /p>

Well it is Tuesday afternoon now and have not thrown up since yesterday no diarrhea since this am but still have horrible lower belly cramps, food and liquid is not upsetting me and giving gas pain,indigestion like it was. But want to know that all is ok and get rid of this pain.

Any words of wisdom from experience ???

Unfortunately, no words of wisdom--just empathy. I am 6 weeks out and was told to up my Protein and start eating the regular diet. Moved from soft to regular (2 ounces) and upped protein---one or both are giving me major cramps and diarrhea. Sipping Gatorade and when I finally get thru this--going back to soft diet.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
