Slurpee 7 days post opp



Recommended Posts

Hi All

I had a slurpee yesterday and haven't been feeling well since - strong pains in my stomach and dizzy each time I stand up

Should I be worried?

I done the operation 21st December

Thanks !

Probably wasn't your best idea. It won't hurt you as far as your stitches and suture line, but I'm guessing that the pure sugar hitting your system wasn't in your surgeon's plan for you.

Hope you feel better soon!

Slurpees are pure sugar, could potentially have dumping syndrome, . I would definitely call your doctor if it persists. I hope you feel better!

Probably the most important question that you might want to internally reflect on is what made you do that to yourself? If your cravings are over powering you this early out from surgery you might want to get therapy for your food/sugar addiction because this surgery is just a tool, it won't cure those long term issues for you. Eating crap is what got us into a position of needing WLS to begin with, so this is your time to create good food habits.

I am holding out hope that it could have been a "7-Eleven sugar free Slurpee". 21 calories and 0 carbs.

      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.
