I'm 3 weeks out and struggling. Every night and when I wake up I'm throwing up. During the day everything makes my stomach upset. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Even Protein Shakes are upsetting my stomach. I haven't lost weight in a week but I feel that's because I'm bloated and retaining fluids not foods.

Contact your surgeon just to be sure everything is OK. I vomited for months after my surgery and continue to periodically. I had to go in for a barium check to be sure all was OK

This close to your surgery, any and all issues that are concerning you should be addressed to your bariatric team.

Sure we on this site can and will gladly give you our opinions based on our personal experiences, but that is all that is ---our opinion.

Give your surgeon a call tomorrow and find out the right answer for your concern.

To me, it sounds like excess stomach acid.

I hope you feel better.

Please post and let us know what your "team" has to say. Why? Because we care! :)

Prayers going up for you, my friend.

To me, it sounds like excess stomach acid and GERD. Try sleeping tonight with your head elevated.

I hope you feel better.

contact your nurse or doctor straight away, I was told vomiting can put pressure on the stitches in your stomach so needs to be resolved straight away. Are you taking anti-reflux medication?

Maybe you could be asked to be prescribed some ant-reflux medication? I still suffer with reflux 11 months out and it can sometimes make me vomit especially after I've been lying down

@@beautifully2114 - what happened?

Did you contact doctors office?

If you cannot get through you should probably go to the ER, ALWAYS better safe than sorry.

Much better still at a stall but I guess that's normal.

      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.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
