Yes, I have called and left a message for my doctor to call me back...

I'm still waiting for that call.

Have you called your doctor?

I had surgery May 20, I have these pains that I don't know if it is Hunger Pain or Pain from my surgery (something going wrong)?

I need help please! I really don't know what to make to eat or what to cook..... I am not much of a cook, well not a cook at all.

I was told I can have chicken, shrimp, fish, fruits, etc since I am at one month mark, but how do I prepair my foods?

I get these pains that I just want to stay in bed all day. Its a sharp stomach and side pain. At times I am still vomiting and having

diarrhea, and I don't know what to do anymore.

Thank you for your time

I went to Urgent Care today. I was dehydrated & I was given two bags of IV. They doctor also thinks I might be having a problem with my stomach and he wants me to go see a GI doctor. I was also given an injection of Zofran, plus I was given the pills to take home.

Its been a long day and I am very tired. Thank you everyone for the advise and concern.

I appreciate that very much.

Hi

Yes I have taken Prilosec, & pepto-bismol but nothing has worked.

I am getting so tired of vomiting & the diarrhea.

I think I will go to urgent care tomorrow. I don't think

I want to take another day of this.

Thank you on the hints regarding what to do about food

and preparing it.

Thank you so much.

I'm sorry to hear you're still having problems. I did, too. I wasn't on a PPI after surgery until around week 5--and I threw up regularly, once or twice a day, for the first few weeks postsurgery. It didn't matter before what I ate; a food might stay down one meal and then not work the next. Once I started Prilosec, the vomiting slowed and now has been gone for almost 2 weeks (YAY). You don't mention if you're taking Prilosec or Nexium or anything for acid. I take mine at night, and it has made a HUGE difference.

As for cooking stuff that you only eat a small amount of, it's pretty simple to keep the "fixings" of various meals in the fridge and then combine as you feel like eating it. For instance, if you keep a small amount of lunch meat, some cream cheese, some yogurt, some cottage cheese, etc., you can pull out a bit of whatever you feel like when it's meal time. Our microwave is also a great help--we ALWAYS have leftovers. I take a can of Soup, eat around 1/4 c., and put the rest in the fridge for another meal.

Hang in there--I have definitely been where you are, and you CAN feel better. If you're not on a PPI, call your doc and ask about it, and if you are, call and see if you need a different or stronger one.

Best--

Hi

I had the Sleeve (VSG) surgery on May 20th. I am not able to eat because I keep on vomiting and having diarrhea. All I can keep down is Popsicle..... I am so afraid to go to work this coming Monday. What can I do so that I can stop vomiting? My doctor said I can add a few more things to my diet but I don't know how to cook something that I can only eat 2oz of. I am always tired. Its hard to keep down my Protein Drinks. I'm been home for four weeks and its been a hard 4 weeks.

Can anyone help me with some suggestions on what I can do so that I won't vomiting & have diarrhea? what can I take to stop it? I bought so many different medicines from the drug store and nothing has worked.

Thank you for your time.
