TXDS

I’m 5 months post op Duodenal Switch. For the last week I’ve experienced nausea early in the morning and again in the evening. I’ve thrown up a few times. I haven’t been sick at all since surgery, so I wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this months after surgery? Thanks!

Good job! Hang in there. I had my DS early in 2001. Yes 2001! I was 306 lbs post op and have been 135 lbs more or less since 2002. There will be some challenges but nothing as hard as being obese.

That’s awesome to hear! So happy for your success!

I’m 5 months post op and I wasn’t hungry at all the first few months. I would contact your dr/nutritionist if you feel something is out of the ordinary.

I felt that way for probably 2 weeks and then it eases up.

I could have Jello right away and cottage cheese at 2 weeks post op.

I’m 5 months post op DS. I didn’t have the same issues with my bowels, but for Water I kept a shot glass with me and drank it every 15 min. I did that for probably two weeks and it really helped. Good luck!

Hi! 5 months post op check in - traditional duodenal switch surgery with Ultimate Bariatrics out of Fort Worth Texas and my stats are as follows. Highest weight 333, day of surgery weight 309, and current weight 244.

My surgeon requires all patients do a 3 week pre-op diet, I lost 14 pounds. Clear Soups 8 oz daily, 2 Protein Shakes, and you can have 1 sugar free Jello or sugar free pudding a day. I had the traditional duodenal switch in January ‘20.
