I understand that you have been experiencing extreme diarrhea for the past few days, and it seems to be happening every time you eat. It's important to note that several things, including changes in diet, medication side effects, or an underlying medical condition, can cause diarrhea. I recommend talking to your surgeon about this issue as soon as possible, as they may want to do some tests or adjust your diet to help alleviate your symptoms. In the meantime, you may try avoiding foods known to cause diarrhea, such as high-fiber foods, spicy foods, and foods high in sugar. Drinking plenty of Water and other clear fluids can also help to prevent dehydration. And it's important to note that if these symptoms persist or you have any other concerning symptoms, please seek immediate medical attention.

Just a thought but did they remove your gall bladder when they found your stone and if so how long ago? Diarrhoea can be a side effect of having your gall removed. (Takes time for the body to get used to not having gall to regulate the acid entering your stomach.) Mine persisted for about two months after my surgery though not as severe as yours. My surgeon advised if it persisted or got worse I was to contact him.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
