I’m about 4 weeks post op and I throw up when I drink or eat anything. Followed up with my doctor yesterday and they sent me to get an IV drip for dehydration thinking it would help my nausea. After I did my two litters I still felt nauseated, when I try to drink or eat I throw up. The first couple weeks I did not feel this way. Has this happened to anyone? I’m really scared.

What are you eating and drinking? How is it being prepared?

At that time, Protein Shakes and flavored water made me sick. I stuck with regular lukewarm Water. My food had to be completely tasteless and sugarless for me to eat it. I also had to be hydrated because I had pain in my knees.

Also, you may have to go back a phase on your diet until your stomach settles.

Ugh sounds like you're having a difficult time. I'm so sorry.

I experienced "the foamies" for the first time the other night and it was awful. They suggested I might have a stricture developing but I'm still hopeful it's just that my tummy wasn't quite ready for fish and needs more time so I've went back to full liquids.

If you aren't keeping fluids down, have they done an endoscopy to see if you have developed a stricture? If you have, please try not to worry, they can dilate it in a simple procedure so you don't experience these symptoms.

Much love x

Dang! So sorry you're having a tough time!!! Could it be a stricture? Is it EVERYTHING you eat, even Water at different temps?

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
