4 weeks out and Everyday , everything I eat comes back up, hurts like h. e double hockey sticks until I vomit. This is becoming frustrating and can only eat a bite or two maybe. Plays with my mind on so many levels as one minute I so regret , so frustrated with my self for even getting this surgery , and some days I look forward to the healthy rewards. Smh

Hang in there, it should get better but...on the other hand, vomiting can be caused by strictures or an ulcer. Are you eating slowly and small bites? Sometimes if you drink or eat too fast it can make you vomit or have pain. Too big of bites can too. Is this something new or has it been going on for awhile? You could call your team just to be safe. Tell them what is gong on. Good Luck Keep us in the know!!!

Sounds like your doctor needs to do an EGD. Sometimes the opening to the new stomach pouch is too small and has to be stretched open with a balloon a bit. Happened to my mom post-op.

Yes @WifeyMaterial: me as well I do Water and the G2 Gatorade. Get you some of that you will like it and also do your Protein shakes that replaces your meals if you can't eat. But I so know about that pain you talking about. Horrible

@Shedo82773: yes I eat slow , take small bites and and chew it well , no matter what I do it comes up. This sucks. I said to my sister I never looked forward to throwing up until I experienced the pain I have if I don't vomit.

That was exactly how I felt. I had strictures. I had 5 endoscopes with 4 dilations. Starting just about 2 months after my RNY. ( July 2, 2013) I finally called and went in for my 1st in NOV of 2013, then in Dec 2013. Jan 2014 July 2014 with my last one in Jan of 2015. I haven't had any more trouble thank goodness. I feel like that is part of the reason I lost my weight so fast. I could hardly hold down Water. Lots of vomiting. At first, it was so hard to throw up it hurt so bad!! Then it got to where it wasn't an effort at all. Scary stuff. So keep on it, my friend. You have to be pushy sometimes. Dr's need to be pushed to find out what is going on. Good luck

@@shedo82773 thank you I will , but see liquids I can hold down with no problem , I'm gonna change a few things up on my end and see if that helps before I let them do the EGD

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
