Some problems eating post-op



Recommended Posts

Yesterday I drank some Protein Shake and my stomach was just fine with it. Today I drank the same Protein shake and a few minutes after drinking it I felt nauseated. It's getting better now after drinking some other Fluid half an hour later but I'm not entirely feeling good right now.

I wonder if this was early dumping though I'm not sure why yesterday it was fine and today it wasn't. I already had this experience two days ago. Both times the same food and in the morning it wasn't ok, in the evening I tried again and I felt perfectly fine.

Anyone else has this problem?

It likely isn't dumping. I had MONTHS where the same food would be okay one day and not the next (sometimes even during the same day). I don't have an explanation for it, but just to say, you are not alone. I have read it from many people. Often times you can go back to that food in a week or so and it is just fine.

Thanks for your answer. It always feels good to know that you're not alone with certain things.

I had some cold sweats about 20 min after eating and felt very weak. That's when I thought it could be early dumping after all. I drank a chamomile tea after vomiting and my stomach settled again.

Today I ate twice so far and it feels fine. Not sure if I should risk a Protein Shake today.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
