Fluids and Food ... Questions!



Recommended Posts

I had my revision on April 16th. I have seen a lot of comments about individuals not being able to get their fluids in. I have had no problem getting my fluids in from the beginning and have started on soft (pureed) foods and am feeling good. I have not ate much when I do, but am having no problems (except some stomach acid).

Is there anyone else who is feeling this good and not having problems with Fluid or food? I seem to read all about the problems and wonder if something is wrong that I am not having any???

What's a revision? I just came out the hospital from being sleeved today and this liquid diet is not doing it for me. Neither are the Protein Shakes. I am super hungry and wonder what I'm doing wrong. I shouldn't be this hungry. I also have no issues getting liquid down.

I am having a lot of trouble getting fluids in. When I did the upper GI at the hospital the barium got stuck. I had to keep dry swallowing to get it to down. Then he showed me how swollen my stomach was. Right now I am not hungry at all. I'm sure I will be when the swelling goes down.

@@jennafah make sure you are drinking enough fluids, also ask your doc about a ppi if you are not on one already.

Thirst or reflux can cause you to feel hungry.

Some problems may arise, but right now it looks like you're on a peaceful road to recovery, and I would be thrilled if I were you!
