I had sleeve on 9/11/14 I had one normal bowel movement and then Water green(tmi) diarrhea. I'm scared to go any where it's just god awful. Is this going to go away?

I'm not a medical professional so I can't really offer an opinion, but I will say that if that were happening to me, I would be asking my doctor for guidance or reassurance. I know a fair amount of people do have diarrhea for a few weeks after surgery (I didn't), but "constant" and "green" would be enough to get me on the phone with my doctor. Good luck!

I have had diarhea the whole time too. I was sleeved on sept 25, only once a day. I think its because of all the liquids that we eat instead of solid food. I am on full liquids until tomorrow then pureed. So I am thinking it might be better after that. I would rather be loose than constipated. Heres hoping, also if your Protein that your taking at one shot is more than 30 grams they say that can cause diahrea. My nutritionist told me that. Good luck to you!

Call your doctor. I got watery green diarrhea at 6 weeks post and it turned out to be a C. Diff infection. Took 6 weeks of antibiotics and finally a fecal transplant to get rid of. And if it's not an infection, your doctor can Rx a treatment plan. Long term diarrhea is never good and you can get dehydrated easily (I needed IV fluids 3 times when I had it)

Jez yeah I thought the same thing about Constipation also but not being able to leave the house cause your afraid of an accident is pure torture along with the other obvious side effects of diarrhea I've got a call into dr
