My Sleeve is Sick?#=



Recommended Posts

So let me say I am 50 days post op and down about 35 pounds. I have tried things that I should not have tried and even pushed my limits with experimenting with various foods with my sleeve. For those of you thinking of even eating foods and things that you should not, DONT!! anyhoo, for the past 3 days I have been having bouts of nausea. Now, Im constantly feeling sick to my stomach.smells are getting to me and even some foods have made me feel sick as if I will puke .Anyone experience this for sometime after having surgery? I think my sleeve is sick...

Not exactly the same, but I either drank too much Water at one time and/or ate slightly too much on Monday. I've had pain when burping, which turned into sharp stomach pain (periodically) when not burping. It appears to have stopped this afternoon (I hope).

The bariatric nurse thinks I could have irritated my stomach/sleeve. She recommended liquids and/or very soft foods. I've stuck to liquids the past two days, perhaps that will help you?

When all else fails call your Dr (if for nothing else, peace of mind). Good luck!

Not sure this would even apply, but if there is the least chance of pregnancy, you should take a test. Hormones can go completely crazy after weight loss, and if you're sexually active, there's always a chance...

you are completely right. I did have one slip up with the hubby after I was cleared for activity if you get my drift where we didnt use any protection. We never did anyway as I was trying to conceive anyway. We were told to wait atleast 14 months to start again,and have been planning on waiting.we just slipped that one time and didnt use any type of BC. It would blow my entire mind if I was, as we have tried for 4 years to conceive and since I have pcos have not been able to. Would be incredibly crazy! I really hope im not. Im going to test tomorrow

      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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
