I just might have to go to the er, but they wont be able to help me, maybe rehydrate me with iv fluids, but that just takes care of the symptims, not the problem? then i'm hit with a huge bill and I cant afford that nor can i afford to be out of work! I had this surgery to help me not create more problems!

I would go to the ER tonight, especially since your doctor isn't taking your concerns seriously. I wouldn't wait till Monday. I'm not trying to scare you...you are 4 months out and this is not normal. It's not healthy for you to not be eating for so long and if everything is coming out of you, you may be dehydrated. Have you had blood work done recently? Was it normal?

I hope you are able to find out what is going on quickly! Please keep us updated.

yes, I have been on prilosec (2 caps day) and previced (1 cap day), plus I take mylanta, and zofran. they help. but I still have problems!

thanks so much for your quick response! I have to wait till monday to discuss with my surgeon, but he does know I've had these complications and just poo poo's them! as long as I'm losing weight, that is his main objective! I was just wondering if anyone else was experiencing the same types of issues and will it ever get better?

I'm so sorry you are not feeling good. I would definitely get in touch with your surgeon and have him check it out.

Hi all!

I am having a very difficult day! I am 4 mo postop, my sleeve gast was on mar 3, 2011. I have lost 95 lbs and that part is great! The not so great part is the whole other package! I am nauseaus every day, and have to take an expensive pill to keep from feeling sick. liquids are fine, but the minute i ingest a solid, i feel a huge lump in my stomach. I have chronic heartburn and fits of gastric acid and bile reflux that sometimes comes out of my nose! The doc said he fixed my hiatel hernia, but I have never been so acidic! About a few weeks post op, i got very sick, like I had food poisoning! I was throwing up and pooing at the same time, if you can imagine that! This went on all night! Then i was ok and then it happened again last night! I woke up very nauseated and started dry heaving then I kept moving my bowels! I am still extremely nauseaus and I have to miss work tonight, which I really cant afford to do! I really could use some advise!

I am 3 months post op and I was doing great till 3 weeks ago! I have los 80 lbs! but I havent lost a single lb in 3 weeks!! I am not doing anything differently, but I am not excersising because I was losing so well! But now I am very frustrated and I am sure that excersise is key! The dreaded workouts! Why plateau, though? I'm hardly eating anything! My body just wants to stay fat, I think? Any tips? Please help?
