I am 6 weeks post op and no matter What I drink or eat I violently dry heave. Nothing comes up other than mass amounts of saliva. I'm starting to panic that something is horribly wrong despite being readmitted to the hospital last week and having tests done.

Has anyone had a similar experience?

How long did it take for it to go away?

I have anti nausea medication but I avoid taking it cause it makes me dry heave so bad.

Either way I'm glad I'm not the only one who has experienced this.

Sadly like a month or more.. it was a bad time and I regretted my surgery but one day I woke up and it was gone.. the medication hardly worked for me. .

i had the same problem. I called it buyers remorse I ended up being constipated. And the doc ordered the GI to look at my pouch. It does get better. Just like gruiz27 said

Ugh I'm going on week 3 of dry heaving from hell. I'm glad to hear it will end and that it hasn't ruined my life forever it's just hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I've never been so sick in my life and I regret this surgery so much.

      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.
