Hi Anna! Don't let your post surgery emotions get the best of you! Your body just went thru major surgery, and it will take time for it to feel as it did before. In the meantime, it is trying to figure out "Where the heck did the other 3/4 of my stomach go? It was just right here! I hate when I can't find something I'm looking for!" and it is sending mixed messages to the brain. Five months from now you will be so excited over your new body that the memory of this past month will be replaced with thoughts of "Wow, I look HOT! What surgery?". LOL We are all here for you whenever you need us to get you thru the bad times! I'm sending you some hugs OOOOOOOOOOOO!

Have you called the doctor? They can prescribe something for the nausea. You should call ASAP. If you get too nauseous to drink your Protein shakes or Fluid you can end up dehydrated.

They'll likely give you IV fluids. Make sure you ask for prescriptions for anti-nausea and a good PPI.

Im at the hospital now

Me too, I've been in and out about 4-5 times since my surgery on 9/4. I regret my decision daily. I'm losing weight but I feel sick daily and never know how my body will respond to food or even Water. They send me home with meds and I end up right back. I pray the figure out what's going on this time. You're not alone!

      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.
