questions about the sleeve

[vannort 2]

I had surgery Nov 5 2013 for the first 8 months things where great . F or the last 2 months I have had no energy I eat I am on the couch when I feel like eating my stomach feel like it is burning up on the inside. I drink a bottle of antacid in a day or 2. most of the time I lay on the couch with a heating pad.I take 40mg of Omeprazole twice a day and they just added 300 mg of Ranitidine. I use to be able to to to the gym but now I cant do hardly any thing. . ANYONE ELSE HAVE THESE ISSUES ? Thank you Pam

Have you gone back to your doctor about this?

You need to get to the doc and get your blood looked at. If you were good for 8 months and now exhausted it points to a deficiency which can happen even if you've been compliant about your protein\supplement intake.

I have I went on Oct 31st to added the 300 mg of zantac and told me to join this group and this happens in the sleeve and I am there first patient.

So sorry to hear you are in pain. I have had stomach problems and heartburn for years so I understand how uncomfortable you are.

My surgeon told us that it was a possibility. My heartburn and pain went away after surgery. But they found a hiatal hernia and repaired it during surgery so I'm sure that helped.

People respond differently to different acid medications and it sounds like yours isn't working. See if they can try a different one. My surgeon prescribes protonix, might be worth trying.

Yep, Lexie. I'm thinking it's time for a doctor visit.

Definitely sounds like a nutritional deficiency to me. Are you staying hydrated?

[vannort 2]

They did blood work to make sure I am not malnutrition . It is cr azy it burns so bad I try to make myself vomit to see if it would help it doesn't. My vital are all over the chart the dr said because I am sick.

I have went back to the dr he wanted me to join this group he said it happens in the sleeve and maybe I could talk to other that have the same problem.
