Sick for 2 hours? Is it normal?



Recommended Posts

I’m 6 months post RNY. I have only gotten sick twice the first month after surgery from eating too fast.
Both time it’s what others call dismiss but for me it a sudden gush of salamis like drooling.

Tonight I had 2 ounces of chicken and a cauliflower cheese side. I think I ate at normal speed and all was fine.
About an hour later I ate most of a 5 oz yogurt I’ve had before. I was almost done with it after maybe 7-8 minutes and felt full so I stopped and didn’t finish the last bites.

It’s been 2 hours of nausea and an ache between my shoulder blades. That’s a common thing I feel if I eat fast or too much.

Now it’s been almost 3 hours since the chicken and 2 since the yogurt and I just got the foamies and still feel nauseated but the achy pain is better.

Is it normal to feel this bad hours later?

It has taken me 4-6 hours sometimes, after a bad episode. Pretty horrible feeling.

I was cold and felt ta little shaky but that may have been stress. Once I woke up today I felt back to normal. It was Okios lemon yogurt. I think I have had that flavor before but maybe I haven't and it was the acidity or flavoring that bothered me. It's so discouraging and it makes me feel like I will never feel "normal" again.

This has happened to me SEVERAL times. I am 5 1/2 months past bypass and it is horrible and it usually happens when I'm at work and it lasts for hours! Yes we will get better!

I had to laugh at your response because this same thing has happened to me eating chicken and it has only happened at work. I blame it on work and not the surgery. 🙂 But seriously, it just seems as if some days our bodies are just more sensitive than others.

      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?
