If your'e not able to eat, call your surgeons office for meds that stop that. Sounds like gas pain, which only goes away with walking and also a heating pad can help. But if you can't drink you will become dehydrated and could end up in the hospital.

That happened to me. I had to get iv fluids a couple of times. But anti-nausea medicine helped (had to try a couple). They discovered I had an infection probably caused by thrush I didn't know I had before the surgery. After taking the medicine get rid of it things got better.

The only thing is I actually think it is helping with my weight loss still because everything I ate that made me sick I don't want to best anymore- some of my favorites!

Go to the doctor!

I've been doing extremely well until now.

My surgery was 11/04/14.

A few weeks ago I noticed extremely pains, wanting to vomit, (but can't), immediately following swallowing anything liquids and solids.

Last Tues. I went back to my surgeon and he scheduled-having ultrasound this coming week.

Now along with above symptoms,

within 20 minutes of trying to eat anything I get cramps, and diarrhea. Stomach makes terrible loud noises and extremely gas. Now popsicles coming out same color on opposite end. At times, I feel weak and faint.

Doctor mentioned gall bladder. I'm getting worse instead of better.

I've lost 42 pounds and have 60 pounds to goal.

      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.
