  1. Hi, Thanks for you reply. Have you seen your surgeon? How old is your surgery? Are you eating solid foods at dinner? I think I started eating solid foods too soon.
  2. There's a 100% Whey drink that has 40 grams of protein. It' a flavored drink that was recommended by a nutritious at my support group. I' 7 weeks post surgery and I' experiencing nausea too. I'm calling my surgeon tomorrow. I' taking Prilosec and Zantac with minimal relief.
  3. Has anyone used Isopure for protein? I'm drinking it daily and wondering if anyone else has tried or using it?
  4. I'm 7 weeks post Gastric Sleeve and I'm experiencing constant. It feels like my food is sitting in the middle of my chest. I have pain between my shoulder blades more on the left. I can't vomit. Can anyone give me some insight? I'm calling my surgeon tomorrow.
  5. Thanks Renee. I'm taking Zantac (liquid form), however not regularly and this morning, I took an over the counter Prilosec. I have prescription Prilosec, but capsules are too large to swallow at this time.
  6. Thanks. I had reflux prior to surgery and my Doc prescribed a liquid antiacid, but it doesn't seem to help. I'm thinking about going back to the doctor. I'm thirsty all the time. If I drink too much Water then I don't have room for my meals. Any suggestions on how to quench my thirst? Hi Barb, My doc prescribed Prevacid from the get-go. I have never had an acid problem but he said it can come on with a vengeance and he was right. I didn't take the medicine, and sure enough about 6 days post op it arrived. Now I take the medicine and have had no more problems. Give Doc a call, sounds like you're gonna need it. Good luck to you
  7. I'm 1 month post sleeve. After small meals, I feel like I'm having acid reflux symptoms or want to throw up. No matter how little I eat, it feels like the food stops. I'm thirsty all the time for Water or cold fruits and juices. Initially I felt very weak and tired, however that is going away. Nothing else to tell. I was wondering if anyone out there have or had the above symptoms? BarbG
