That's a good question due to the fizzies. It's not carbonation but could expand the stoma. Is there anything else you can take in it's place?

Thank y'all just trying to be on the safe side. I appreciate all your feedback. :). Took my naseau meds from surgery and it is helping. I do not want to throw up and have not since I have been banded in Sept.

Pepto, Tagamet, Zantac, Tums, Gas-X for the tummy, Phenergan for the nausea or what ever your doctor gave you and be thankful for the diarrhea it will relieve some pressure. Early on in this process I used to suffer from a lot of indigestion and many things upset my stomach and I had nausea. Hope your feeling better.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
