ancirasd 44 Posted December 14, 2017 So I’m two weeks out yesterday. And I ended up going into the er because I kept throwing up and couldn’t keep any fluids down. I ended up having severe dehydration and the start of a kidney infection. And yes I have been drinking my Water. Did this happen to any of you post op?

Mhy12784 423 Posted December 14, 2017 If you're vomiting and having trouble keeping fluids down I wouldn't really call that failing Sucks sure, but it's not like you were doing tbe wrong things. Your body just wouldn't cooperate 1 Dolphinlover70 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emgem 53 Posted December 14, 2017 Yes! I had exactly the same thing happen and felt EXACTLY the same way!I felt embarrassed to be having trouble because everyone told me I'd be the easy patient. I'm young with no prior health issues. But there was nothing I could do to get Water or food down. It just hurt! Don't feel like a failure! After my dr put a scope down to give me some more room where stomach and esophagus connected I stopped throwing up. It will get better. I know exactly how you're feeling and dehydration impacts your emotions too. You're doing nothing wrong, your body just went through hell. Hindsight is 20/20, so borrow some of mine and know that you are OK!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
