I was sleeved on 7/5 - so, I am just a bit over 7 weeks out. I was doing just fine eating until last week. I am still mostly eating soft foods - but, trying little bites of new foods. I now on Saturday for the first time - vomited LOTS and had severe pain and gassy stomach after eating. I have moved back to eating the good old standard of oatmeal, cottage cheese and egg beaters. But, those don't even sit well with me anymore. I feel terrible after I eat or drink. Should I call my doctor?

You shouldn't vomit with the sleeve. It means something is wrong.. You're either eating too quickly or too much or something else is wrong. There's always a reason.

Were you experiencing any sinus issues at the same time? Allergies?

I had terrible allergy problems last week when this started. What would that have to do with this?

It sounds like there is a good chance that you were exposed to something that inflammed your stomach eiher after you ate, during, or possibly before. It could be alot of things, more that the article lists. You probably do not even have to consume them.

I had an allergist tell me that now that he has seen alot of patients with VST he is convinced there is much more of a correclation to environment and gastritis. He believes the allergies you are experiencing outside your body are reflected inside much more than the medical community widely recognizes at the moment. It is enhanced when we have such tiny stomachs and have had stomach surgery, to boot.

Also,sinus drainange probably aids to hits to our immunity due to calorie readuction, stress of upcoming/post surgery, etc.

everytime I have anything near that hit, it does, indeed, go hand-in hand with allergies. Alot of people find relief with Zantac. It has a antihistamine as an ingredient. I am sticking to benadryl.

I was going to ask if you were eating slow enough. The times I have become nauseated and run to the bathroom (have not thrown up, just kind of heaved) it was because I ate too fast. My sleeve HATES that. But looking at the allergy thing- wow.

      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.
