Genr2d2 21 Posted January 28, 2017 What do you recommend I do if I think I have a stomach virus or food poisoning? Do I ride it out, like I used to with a whole stomach or do I need to call my doctor and get to a hospital? Has anyone had a stomach virus or food poisoning since being sleeved?

MissKay 329 Posted January 28, 2017 I think it just depends on how far out you are. If your profile is correct, you should be fine to ride it out as long as your symptoms aren't worsening, you don't have a too high fever, etc. etc. Basically, nothing is different once you're past a certain point (from my understanding, typically 30 days).

savyourdvine1 110 Posted January 28, 2017 Gavascon works like a charm. Good for acid reflux too Check with Dr. first. When I had food poisoning and gerd it was my go to relief. It started soon as I swallowed it. Sent from my SM-J700P using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Kate_ 2,224 Posted January 28, 2017 Just be very careful that you don't become dehydrated. My own opinion is that if you do, you need to contact your GP or hospital asap. Hope you feel better soon!! Kate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genr2d2 21 Posted January 28, 2017 Thank you all for your advice. I do feel totally dried out, but I think the worst is over. I'm able to down ice chips. If I feel I need to go to hospital for an IV, I will. Best wishes to you all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
