Help! I think I'm dying

[ginaandy 1]

Whoever can help me please!! I am so worried I think I'm going to be seriously ill. I had my sleeve on 9/22 i haven't been able to eat or keep anything down.... i vomit everything. I'm afraid I'm dehydrated. I called my doctor he told me that eventually it will get better and to try to get some Water in. But I'm seeing everyone here eating and being ok is this normal?

That does not sound normal. Get a Dr's appointment asap.

Unfortunately everyone is different. Do you still have nausea meds? Try taking those before you try and drink or eat

I have days I'm good and others that I am struggling like you. I was sleeved 19th of September. If you feel that you are in serious trouble go to the ER, get pumped with fluids. Look for unstable gait, blurred vision, hallucinations, chills, sweats joint pains big muscle aches confusion those could mean bad dehydration or possible infection. I'm not a doctor but this is what I was told. It will get better but don't try to carry on if it is bad.

If you think your dying go to the hospital. Being dehydrated is really bad, they could at least give you fluids to help.

Hope it gets better soon xx

When something is really wrong, it is normal to get a feeling of impending doom. It's your body telling you to seek help. So I suggest you go to urgent care. If your doc is just saying it will get better and not telling you to come in, id question him as a doc for sure! Are you urinating regularly? If not, that is the first sign of dehydration and that can result in danger if not addressed.

Poor nutrition, in extreme cases can result in potassium deficiency which makes you at high risk for cardiac arrest. Also, there are many Vitamins that your body needs to function and if you aren't getting them, it needs to be addressed immediately.

I am no doctor but I am a nurse and have been for years. So please take this advise and get checked out. Best wishes.
