I was sleeved on April 9th. So I am 7-8 weeks out. I've felt pretty good all this time, besides having low energy. Today, though, I started feeling nauseous right before lunch, and started having diarrhea. Tonight I've had worse nausea, continued diarrhea, and chills & fever (100.5). My stomach keeps sending its contents back up my throat, but I haven't vomited yet. I got some phenergan that my mother had on hand, and it has helped, but not completely. I feel rotten, but I'm hoping this is a virus. Someone in my office had a similar illness this week. Would I know if I was having a leak or even a blockage as opposed to a virus? Should I just try to sleep it off and see if i feel better in the morning? I'm a little worried about getting dehydrated. And I'm scared that maybe i haven't been chewing well enough and eating too fast and have hurt my sleeve. Any advice appreciated.
