nausea/dizziness with some "foods" post op?



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, I am just over two weeks post op and have started adding things back to my diet per my surgeons plan. the only thing i seem to notice is that with some foods i feel dizzy and nauseated. I will say that i was type II before surgery (of course still am but blood sugars have been good since) and im not sure if it has something to do with that or if i am just not tolerating the food. OK examples.

oatmeal - fine

cream of wheat - sick

most ALL cream Soups make me feel blah

regular potatoes - ick (havent tried sweet potatoes yet)

apple sauce - fine

milk - fine

yogurt - fine

what is the deal? any one else just not tolerate cream soups? it's strange, because if it was sugar i would think it would also do it with milk...

I have decided that maybe it's just part of learning to eat foods again since i havent really eaten anything in a while. I cant wait to get to the part where i can eat real Protein. I am dying for some fish! I really feel like it's a carb thing.... Anyway just thought it would throw it out there and see what ya'll thought.

OH and i have taken my blood sugar while i was feeling sick, like the other night i had some potato Soup. I tested and my blood sugar went up to 160s but by an hour or so was back to 117. So im not sure if it's possibly an insulin surge that i am feeling? Im guessing obviously....

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
