So sick 6 months post op



Recommended Posts

Hello, have you been eating anything different recently such as fattier foods? I am also six months out and have noticed that I had to go back to the basics of Soup and softer foods for awhile because I have been nauseous lately as well.

Please call your surgeon on Monday or asap and discuss it with them.

Agree with @JessLess. If you can't keep fluids down today, this is an ER visit. This can be many things at 6months. But generally, you don't feel nausea and food aversion like that at 6 months.

If you have pain associated with this nausea, you should call your doc this morning and discuss if this is an ER visit. It could be simple Constipation, a bug, too deep in ketosis (probably not), stricture, ulcers, or worse, a tortion (partial obstruction) from a twisted gut or internal hernia.

Or it could be gallbladder, appendix, pancreatitis, so many things and many of them are true emergencies.

Hope you get to the bottom of it quickly and begin feeling better.

Is it a long term thing or has the nausea just recently happened?

I'm writing for my friend she was found fine until she got severe esophagitis they had to put feeding tube in through nose.

So I had an appointment with my surgeon yesterday they admitted me into the hospital ran some tests this morning and I have a hiatal hernia

Interesting! I had one that they fixed in surgery. Glad they solved it, should be easy to take care of right?

I go in for surgery Thursday morning. Should be a simple fix.

They said eveytime I swallow the hernia blocks my stomach so nothing is going in the only option it has is to come up that explains why I have done nothing but vomit. I'm just ready to feel better again

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
