Almost 2 months-Not eating

[Iqbal 1]

I'm a male, I was 189kg pre surgery. Now its almost 2months after surgery, i'm still on liquid intake. I cannot eat at all. If i take puree food, i can only have 2 teaspoon or none at all cz i feel nausea. I feel very weak cz i dont eat. I'm only having Protein twice a day and Water. Is this normal? Has anyone hone through this?

No this is not normal. You have to get in your Protein and fluids in order to heal.

Please talk to your surgeon and your NUT so that they can help you.

Please call your surgeon. Depending on which surgery you had, you may have a stricture. You need to be getting your Protein and Vitamins and Fluid.

totally NOT NORMAL

I'm 2 months post op (OMG already!!!???) on Monday and I am on a normal eating plan. (except some foods that I don't wish to re-introduce into my eating plan)

I agree, it could be a stricture, or a bowel obstruction. please go get it checked out immediately!

keep us posted too please.

hope all is ok

It also could be that you are severely dehydrated which can cause the nausea. I would certainly call my surgeon to rule out anything more serious but you must start drinking fluids immediately if you can.

It also may be acid reflux since every time you eat you get nauseated.

Yes exactly. The thing is i cant even hear the word "food". I cant and dont feel like eating at all. I will definitely look for a doctor here. I did the surgery in another country, so im trying to communicate with my Nut. But like u said i have to do a check up. I hope at least i can increase the Protein intake for now cz its Fluid. Thank u all. Will keep u posted. Do comment for more advices. Really appreciate.
