Vomited, now in pain!



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! I was sleeved 12/29, and started my puree stage today. I believe I ate too fast and got nauseous, which in turn made me vomit. Now every time I bend down or try to turn (while in bed), I feel this pain by my belly button, kind of like I'm being stabbed with something sharp!!! What could it be?! Has anyone experienced anything similar?!?!

You're still healing so it's not surprising that vomiting caused pain. Take it easy for tonight, it pain persist call your doctor in the AM.

Trying lying down on your side and sipping Water. I vomited a few times in the first few weeks and they pain will subside. Just take it easy.

@@Big_Mama Maybe you should give your belly a rest and just stick to liquids for a day, then try again...slowly.

Thanks ladies! I definitely need to learn how to slow down. I barely got in half of my meal when I had to run off, and not even 10 minutes had passed since I had begun. @@MyssJones, sleeping on my side right now is so painful. I feel kind of like I pulled a muscle. =/

I would check with dr right away. I read in big book on gastric sleeve that a sharp piecing pain can be sign of leakage. I don't mean to scare you but better safe than sorry

Thankfully it was nothing. The Dr. said I probably pulled a stitch at the muscle by my belly button, and to just ice it and take Tylenol. I felt much better the day after.

      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.
