Can't keep anything down besides water!

[Techeliza 4]

It seems that the only thing that settles in my tummy is Water. Everything else I get severe pain after swallowing, almost like a rush of heart burn. I throw up Jello, Protein drinks/shakes, and Soups. The only safe thing for me is water. I contacted my doctors office and they seemed like it was no big deal, to try and mix things together.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I am 1 week post op.

No, that was not my experience at all. I never vomited at all. If this keeps happening I would call back.

I had a hard time one week out two. I'm 3 weeks out today and couldn't really have any Soups or fish until week 2. It will get better. Stay hydrated. That's so important and just drink what you can throughout the day or your Protein Shakes and then add a little as you can. It gets better I promise.

Tomorrow will be 5 weeks post op for me. Although I didn't vomit, I would get sick from drinking too fast trying to make sure I got all of my Protein and fluids in for the day.

Make sure you are not trying to rush to get everything in. Try to start drinking early in the morning and take your time throughout the day. It will get better.

Eat slowly and pea sized bites. Nothing spiced. Spices can upset the tummy. If this doesn't work, call your doctor immediately.

Thank you guys! I've been doing much better. Trying to get through it day by day!

Protein Shakes did not sit well with me post op. Try switching up your shakes? I used Unjury's chicken Soup. My nutritionist was worried it was too much sodium but I survived. lol!

Try Protein 2o. It tastes sort of like gator aid and has fifteen grams of protein. I love the grape and cherry and I find I can stomach those better in the morning when I'm prone to nausea. I'm also mixing my shakes with Water because I don't feel ready for creamy textures from skim or almond milk. Good luck.
