  1. Thank you, I will look into it! The iron thing is very interesting because I had bouts of anemia before surgery. Like way before but with the drastic diet changes, I would not be surprised.
  2. No leak, I had an endo dilation (for a stricture) and an upper gi. I do have a check up that was postponed a few weeks thanks to corona. I am hoping to test out some theories before then so I can eliminate everything "easy". I was told that the dilation often needs to be repeated but that was much different, I would vomit up a sip of water. Thank you for replying!
  3. Thank you for your reply. I drink a lot of water, always have. But the last few days I have not been getting in 60 oz. Close, around 45 but still not enough. I will focus more on getting the full 60 oz. Had no idea that dehydration could cause pain when eating. I had an upper gi and thankfully there is no leak or other issue. So there is that ?
  4. My bypass was done in December but I still can't eat much. I basically eat hummus, yogurt and cottage cheese because they are the only things I can keep down. I have pain when swallowing liquids or eating certain foods. I know with the first couple bites if I am going to tolerate a food item and most times I just give up and go without. I throw up at least 3 days a week and usually continue to throw up for hours.. long after my stomach is empty. Anyone else experience this? I had to cancel an appointment with my surgeon due to covid19 concerns ( I am immunosuppressed due to lupus. )
