I was sleeved on May 7th I have been feeling great, I am down 42lbs. However, I woke up early this morning with severe right side abdomen pain, i can hardly stand up, and vomiting bright yellow stuff that burns, I don't have my appendix. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this. As soon as the doctors office is open I'm calling for an appointment.

Do you have tour gall bladder? It sounds like you are throwing up bile. Call you Dr ASAP or go to the ER.

Are you on Prilosec? Sounds like excess stomach acid. Definitely call your doc!

I am on Zyrtec, but I admit I haven't been taking it like I should be, I hope that's all it is. Thank you

It is Zantac, I do feel much better, just feeling queazy, the doctor didn't seem concerned after I told him what I had eaten and it was before bedtime, I had a small Dill pickle I guess it didn't agree with me, I can't believe that would cause so much pain and discomfort. I am going to stop eating after 6pm, thank you everyone for the advice and support! If it happen against I will be going to the ER ,

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
