Had my sleeve on September9th. I've done so well, not too many problems my first couple weeks.

Now I am back to work, feeling exhausted and I have had two bouts with dumping. NOT FUN AT ALL. Pretty scary as a matter of fact.

I can't sleep more than a couple hours at a time, my headaches are GRIPPING and I have acid reflux all the time. I am a walking burp.

I went to my PCP and he has ordered an MRI with contrast because my headaches are a serious red flag. They wake me up out of a sound sleep and keep me up. I hate fruit things, it makes me gag. Tomato Soup is a saving grace. I did tolerate some mashed potatoes with gravy yesterday. But the day before, dumped after two sips of Soup.< /p>

I know this is a rough spot, but it is frustrating. And being back to work is rough, going home early or calling in sick. Ughhhhhh

Oh man. That sounds horrible. I was also sleeved on the 9th. Hate to hear all the problems you are having. Are you on pepcid? I take it twice a day.

I am praying that things go back to normal and you start feeling better.

I will try Pepcid. I guess I take it no matter what.

It will get better, I know it will and I know I made an excellent choice. Just a stumble I can get up.

Thanks.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
