kristieshannon 1,668 Posted July 27, 2021 Sorry you’re having a rough time. Have you talked with your surgeon and nutritionist? If not you for sure should! I lost hair too, but now at nearly 2 years out it has grown back. If you need to use Protein Shakes to get to your daily Protein goals you should. I actually still have one every morning for Breakfast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShoppGirl 5,023 Posted July 27, 2021 I agree, if you must go back to Protein Shakes. I have the premiere Protein caffe latte ever morning for breakfast. It does have caffeine though not sure if that is okay on your plan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sleeveinthecity 18 Posted July 28, 2021 Oh no you poor thing. Have you had a barium swallow or endoscopy done to see what’s going on? 1 Sosewsue61 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sosewsue61 3,185 Posted July 28, 2021 An endoscopy will determine if you have a stricture or something else going on, you don't mention what has been tried so far, or tested? Or if you are on a PPI, or anti-nausea meds. I hope you keep calling your docs and team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maribelle76 82 Posted July 29, 2021 Yes, it definitely sounds like it is time for the doctor to investigate what's going on. Hopefully it is an easy fix! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
