stomach issues after a cold virus?



Recommended Posts

my kids and i were sick with a cold starting about 10 days ago. my son was better pretty quick. my daughter was more sick, and it took her longer to feel better... and she complained of stomach pain for at least a week. after i had been sick for about 5 days i started having stomach issues too... queasy, upset stomach when i ate, just feeling icky. i am much better, but am still feeling very tired, headaches and a very touchy stomach. has anyone else experienced this? does having a sleeve instead of a stomach effect the course of a virus? i wish i knew what was going on, its very annoying.

My Daughter and I have got the same thing last wednesday for her and friday for me. Cough and sneezing hard, runny nose and queezy and week but no fever.

it's now been 7 days for her and I still feel sick. I get some relief that I'm getting better then it hits me again.

I would say this is the worst cold virus I have ever had and wish it would go away.

In June in Ohio. this is aweful.

We're not going to the doctor. It's a virus. They can't do anything.

We drink carrot juice and others and for me I have been taking theraflu which relieves the symptoms a bit.

This is a bad one!

Yea, I am surprised that the media hasn't talked about it. It's been around since Jan. I believe, since my sister who lives in Florida got it then. It's a 10 dayer for sure. I accidentally shook an old man's hand yesterday. Hope I didn't kill him! lol

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
