Four Months After Gastric Sleeve Surgery - Still Having Nausea And Throwing Up A Lot

Hi there,

I had my sleeve about four months ago and have lost over 100 lbs. I love my sleeve except for the constant throwing up. I can't seem to be able to keep anything inside. Some days are good but most days are bad. Some food, like chicken and bread seems to be stay in on one day, but if I have same stuff the next day, they wont stay in my stomach.

Is anyone else experiencing this? I asked my doctor and he says this is normal. If this is normal, I don't even want to think about what's abnormal. :-(

No, I have thrown up twice after 3 months but those foods are now tolerable. Once in a while feel like throwing up but don't unless I eat a bite or two too much.

you might want to talk with doctor.

I don't think that is normal either. I had issues up until the 2nd month post op and had some complications that caused it.

The only people I know that have had issues with eating and throwing up were either eating too much, too fast, or too big bites, had a stricture or had the RNY.

I would suggest seeing another doctor who will at least do a swallow study or scope you to make sure there isn't a stricture.

I agree. Perhaps follow up with a second opinion and make sure you are not retaining food in your stomach. Keep a really strict food journal, for reference, to make sure you arent developing a food allergy or allergies.

Good luck - I am concerned about the nausea part myself!
