Diarrohrea

[LISA LAS VEGAS 2]

_{I am just over 4 weeks post op. I had my sleeve done on the 7th Of April. Everything has been fab! I have had no problems eating, did the puree stage and now easily managing soft foods. Since Monday 4th of May I have had severe diarrhoea I did have a small curry on Saturday which was not particularly spicy in fact it was rather mild. I Just wondered if that could be the cause. I am not keeping anything inside me, it is just coming straight back out. My hubby is very worried that maybe something is wrong with me sleeve. I think it is bug and will speak to the doctor if I am still like it tomorrow.}

_{I just wondered if anyone else has suffered with extreme diarrhoea and what the cause was and how you managed it please?}

Could be completely unrelated to your sleeve. After all, I am sure you had bouts of diarrhea in the past as well, just like everyone else in the world. Definitely make sure you are keeping up with your liquids, since you are much more likely to get dehydrated. Try something like G2, since it has sodium in it that can help you retain more Water. I agree that if it persists for more than a couple of days, you should talk to a doctor, whether its related to your surgery or not. Because long-term, dehydration could become a very serious issue.

Thank you Jamie for you help, it is much appreciated. I am doing my best by putting as much Water inside me as I can drink. If I drink tea or juice my body doesn't like it one bit. My tummy does seem to be getting less gurgley and niggly, so I hope that it might be easing.
