TiredOfChubRub

The hernia? I have read that the surgery can cause them. Worst part about this is my surgeon is very well respected in the bariateix community.

Thank you. I will check her out.

I am not getting in any good at all and barely 10 oz of fluids per day. This is much more than just giving myself time to heal.

Need a second opinion and need to know who your doc is and if they were good. Thanks!

I totally agree. Tht is why I am asking others out there if they had the same problem. Please spread the word for me so I can get opinions.

I am wondering the same thing. I definitely want a second opinion.

My sleeve is swollen and tight after almost five weeks post op!!!! Surgeon is saying I may have to have the bypass if it doesn't resolve on its own. Has anyone else had this problem?????? Any suggestions????

UPDATE: I had an X-ray the other day. Barium of course and i puked it all up. But it showed that my sleeve is extremely tight in one spot and that I have a hiatal hernia. They said that if it doesn't start to get better on its own that I may have to have bypass done. I am refusing to do that. I do not want the bypass. Help!!!

What is the procedure called?

I am having the exact same issues. Only a month out, but it is so bad that I am having trouble getting anything down.

Thanks for all of the advice. I am at the doc now so hopefully he will have a magic cure.

I am almost 4 weeks out now and feeling your pain. I don't know what to do either.

Thank you all for the kind words. I wish I could say I am feeling better today, but that is not the case. Tried to make an apt with my surgeon who I found out is on vacation until Monday. Hoping by that time I am over this slump. You all have been so helpful.

I am just so sick all of the time. I feel like I am in my first trimester of pregnancy. I just want this feeling to end. Exhaustion and nausea have taken over my life.

They said I had 4+ key tones in my urine which means I was severely dehydrated. Hoping that since I am now hydrated that the nausea will Go away. Again, all of you hVe been so wonderful. I feel so lucky to have a support system.
