Hang in there Lizzyshade. Everyone who has had the surgery says it gets better. You may want to call your Doctor later this morning and advise him of the Nausea, maybe he will prescribe you something. It's all going to be worth it!

I had diarrhea when I got home on Wednesday as well, alot of it was nerves about the change from being at hospital to transitioning back to being home. I still have loose BMs but its not as severe anymore. I would definitely call your surgeon about the nausea though, if you aren't drinking enough to replace what you are loosing with the diarrhea you are likely to become dehydrated very quickly. I apparently come out of surgery throwing up and had a few issues in the hospital as well so they sent me home with suppositories for nausea, just in case...knocking on wood...haven't needed to use one as of yet!

      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?

      April Surgery
      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! 😞
