I will be seeing my pcp on Monday but if this doesn't get better the surgeon said they will get me in to see a gastro Dr here.

Hi everyone. I had my r n y on May 22nd and was discharged the very next day. Everything was going well just the minimum pulling at the incision sites and soreness. About two weeks after surgery I woke up in the middle of the night with severe pain in my stomach and then began throwing up it scared me so bad because I was so worried about tearing something inside and my doctor is in San Antonio Texas miles away from here in Mississippi. I was just at the point of soft foods and was tolerating scrambled eggs and refried Beans and yogurt. But slowly I am now not able to tolerate anything but liquids. I get this ball feeling in my chest like something is stuck a rock and it sliding up and down and then shortly after that I start throwing up. It's not food it's a very thick mucus. I have developed a severe UTI and was prescribed an antibiotic in liquid form but I can't even keep that down. The doctor said there is narrowing at a certain point after the surgery where the stomach connects to the small intestines and he said within a week or two it should dilate itself. Has anyone else experienced this? I sure hope it goes away.

I was torn between the sleeve and bypass but after learning the sleeve could potentially make my reflux/Gerd worse, I chose the bypass. My surgery was May 22nd and I feel great.

Hi. I had my bypass on May 22 and have lost 28 lbs. so far.

Hi everyone!! I will be having my bypass next week and I am both scared and excited. Just started the pre-op diet on Monday. Headache is getting better but I'm so hungry. I'm using the Syntrax Nectar Protein because I can't stand that thick milky consistency of other protein powders plus these taste soooo good.

Wishing you all success with surgery and your weight loss.
