First time sick since surgery



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on Feb 25, and had a very easy recovery. No nausea or gas pain, and very little incision pain. So now, 5 weeks out, I catch some kind of stomach bug. Vomited 4 times, low grade fever, and major runs. I've lost 6 pounds overnight in Fluid alone. I already have trouble getting all my Fluid in, so I don't need to become dehydrated. Any ideas on how to re-hydrate myself without getting nauseated again? Sipping Water now, but it isn't going to be enough.

Forget about eating anything...not gonna happen today.

I had that virus a few weeks ago, it will just have to run its course. Try low calorie Gatorade

I agree. Powerade Zero or Gatorade G2's.

Gateorade helped. I tried the G2 Frost which tasted good. Haven't liked Gateorade in the past. I managed about 25 oz of liquid yesterday, no food. I feel better today, but weak.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
