I am almost 2 weeks out from getting my sleeve and I have had really bad stomach cramps for the past couple days. It feels similar to food poisoning. Has anyone experienced this? Is this normal?

I wouldn't say mine were severe but I did have cramps after introducing refried beans 2 days ago, so I stopped and went back to clears for 1 day then full liquids the next day. I took 2 full days for my sleeve to "calm down" after that. If yours continues definitely let your doc know. Good luck, I hope you feel better.

Thanks! I will try clear liquids today and see if my cramps calm down

I use to have spasms after eating or drinking early on. I had some stomach problems yesturday after eating some dry chicken. That did not feel good at all. I need to eat moist meats or my stomach does complain alot. Keep rockin your sleeves. It does get better.

Thanks, I am staying positive and hoping these pains are temporary!

Okey folks. Stomach spasms with anything past couple of days. Still on clear liquids. Plus diarrhea hate to admit it. Not eating much and not losing much.

liquid In = Liquid Out

I wouldn't worry about the diarrhea yet but if you are concerned call your surgeon's office. I had that problem while dealing with my stomach cramps but I'm happy to say it only lasted two days.

Any time I try to eat full liquids I feel like I have the stomach flu. So nauseous and ugh feeling. This normal?

That's how I felt the first two days that I had full liquids. Now they don't bother me. When did you have your surgery? If it was recent, you may not be ready for dairy yet. If it was a long time ago, maybe you are lactose intolerant now? That happens to some people after surgery.

13 days ago. It's awful I just get to feeling miserable. I was a band to sleeve. Started at 162 now I'm at 150 and I'm afraid I may be 90 lbs by the time I eat something lol. I pray it doesn't last long

Try soy or almond milk. That and talk to your Doctor is the only advice I can offer. I wish you the best with it though and keep me posted. I hope it is just the healing process taking a little bit longer.

Thank you. Went today for a follow up. She said 1 out of 6 patients experience dumping and what I am describing sounds like that. They switched me to zofran so that I can take that for nausea. She said it WILL get better and that I am doing everything exactly right. We shall seeeee I guess. Just ready to feel better
