Feeling Really Crappy. Do Not Know Why!?



Recommended Posts

On Sunday I had a few sips of milk. It didn't agree with me. Ever since Monday I have felt like I had to throw up. I can drink Water and g2 but it is very hard to get it down. Sometimes I feel like it is going to come right back up. Taking meds is very hard too. I almost always gag after. Just like foam or bubbles. I called my surgeons nurse yesterday and I don't think she was very helpful. She said that my body is still healing and just try to eat and drink. Doesn't explain why I feel like I am going to throw up or I can't drink or eat or take my pills. I was able to do it just fine before. What is going on. I had my surgery on nov 2nd and my next appointment is dec 12th. What is there to do. What is wrong with me! :(

Hi Stepanie.. I think this has to do with the further out we get in the process. I had my surgery on 10.29.12 and have been feeling about as crappy as you describe for the past week. I am not sure if as we were healing it was easier to take things in than it is now that we are healed more. I have my appt w my surgeon on Tuesday. I will definitely share with you what I find out. I wish you well.. Keep trying to get your Vitamins, Protein & Water in.

I would really love to know what they have to say! I started back to work on Monday and I feel like crap! My nurse says I am just healing slow and just to eat! Who the heck knows.

well I was feeling crappy too but not all the time was I getting pain or vomiting when eating or drinking. I went this morning for my scope and Tue surgeon said it was tight so I did have to her dilated. so definitely get it checked out because I knew something wasn't right. but was scared to call because my symptoms didn't meet all the requirements some had for strictures

      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.
