Hello, im about 6 weeks post op from vsg and having really bad acid reflux. Last night it was bad and i had to drink ginger tea to soothe the burning sensation. I am taking nexium 40 mg whicj helps, but when it wears off, its hell. There is not a day where i dont vomit, which i believe is due to the acid & constipation. I have to get myfluids in between my nausea which is causing me not get enough fluids in. Im miserable. Im not even eating because i dont want to get really constipated. Please help. Its a marry go roung.

Im still on liquid diet

I used to take pepcide and it worked for the acid reflux feeling but not the vomiting.

Hello im about 3 weeks post op and im feeling really constipated. Ive haven't done anything in 1 week. Today i can't drink or eat anything without feeling like im going to explode. Also my chest is hurting as a result. Ive taken miralax, nothing happens. I was supposed to see my dr today but after a 2 hour wait, i decided to walk out pissed cause it was going to be another hour before i see him. Please help, im desperate

I didn't think about a laxative tea. Im a try this

I was sleeved on 1/23 and was back in the hospital this friday 2/3. I couldn't keep anything down. I was released today and i was told i have to start the diet over again.

I had my sleeve done on the 23rd. Since then, my energy is completely drained, right ear is muffled, and i voimitted for the 3rd time today. I had my 1st post op appointment yesterday and dr said everything is fine. But the couldn't even get a blood pressure reading cause the machine kept saying cos. Last night i had 1 grape and 1/4 cup of strained grape juice around 9 pm. Just now i voimitted that and its noon. Also i have this funny gas feeling by my stomach all the time and it only seems to be affected if i eat something. On top of not having the energy to walk, take a showe, going downstairs. Im completely miserable. Im stuck in bed while my city (houston) and friends are enjoying the beautiful weather and festivities. Im drinking alot. I even bought expensive protein jello. I should be starting puree foods on Monday but how can i when food refuses to make it past my stomach into my intestines

Ive been worried because im supposed to start puree on monday. Yesterday i had nothing but Protein drink and Water. I was good all day then i voimitted. I think i drank too much tho. All in all since i found the isopure drinks life has been a easier. Im getting my energy back. I was looking forward to eating food but now im scared Sent from my SM-G935V using the BariatricPal App Ive been worried because im supposed to start puree on monday.

Yo isopure drinks changed the game for me. I was at the point where i couldnt stomach another protein shake. I had lost so much of my energy and was slipping into depression. I came across this, went to vitamin shoppe. I bout black tea and green melon. The very next day my energy was 2x better. Go to gnc or vitamin shoppe Sent from my SM-G935V using the BariatricPal App

I had mines on the 23rd and im also struggling to get liquids in. Im currently on crystal light peach tea. I find sometimes if i drink there will be a knott in chest and have to burp myself. I still have gas but the pain is not as bad as the 1st day. I just want to know when will be able to laugh, sneeze, clear my throat, ect. I never thought little things like that would be effective Sent from my SM-G935V using the BariatricPal App * i find it hard* my bad.
