Dry heaving one year post-op

[mktmathis 0]

Hello everyone,

This is my first post on here. I'm one year post-op and for the past month I've been dry heaving. It usually hits me in the middle of the night. I thought it would just go away... But it has not. Has anyone experienced this? I had my sleeve done in Mexico so my pcp in the states is helping me with recovery and things. I thought that maybe I was pregnant, but that came back negative. Any advice would be helpful. I also haven't lost any weight since December and my surgery date was 3/21/14.

Thank you,

Melissa

I am only five months out but I was dry heaving until last week when I posted how I was feeling

and was advised to take prilosec. I have to take two but I have not had not been sick since. I

still have a problem eating, it hurt when I try to eat solid food. I am glad you are seeing your

PCP, it sounds like you may need to have an upper GI to see what is going on. I feel that anyone

who has had weight loss surgery should stay in close contact with their primary care. I see her

once a month because of post op issues. I hope you feel better soon.

I am very excited and I had to share. I went to the Dr. this morning and I have lost another 10 lbs.

Last month I only lost 1 lb. and was so upset but today gave me another boost. May 10th i was

five months post op. My total weight loss in 91 lbs. I was very sick at first and most of you

know my terrible story. A lot of weight was lost in the first three months but then I just stopped.

I need to lose 42 more lbs and I will be done. I am very excited. I did start walking a lot, I

just head out of the front door and I don't go back until I am exhausted and I think that is what

jump started my weight loss again. For all of you May sleevers, I can't wait to hear your post op

stories. Good luck to all of you...
