  2. Post VSG - Stomach Bug - Not sure what to do

    I had it last week - '24 hour bug' took 5 days of bed rest to recover. Drink and sleep. That's all you can do.

  4. Stomach growling?

    smaduscha replied to theladyslipper's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    It is acid. When that calms down and you can eat solid protein, you will feel full, I promise! Take an acid blocker twice/day, religiously.

  5. Flushed face

    smaduscha replied to amyecpa's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    The vagus nerve can be agitated during surgery and cause the flush. My dr warned me that is happens 80% of the time between post-op days 2-4. Normal. He called it 'sleeve blush'.
