I'm 2.5 wks post-op and I feel horrible. I have no energy the gas pains are getting worst. All smells are making me nauseous. Matter of fact everything makes me nauseous. I am dry heaving all the time to the point where I am scared to eat. Just two days ago I was fine at my doctors appt. Now I feel like I'm 7 days post-op again. Please tell me someone else has been thru this n does it get better. I want to get back to work already

It sounds as though you have had a sudden change for the worse. If that is so, please call your doctor.

I spoke wit my doctor she prescribed me some tabs for nausea which has worked so far. My gas have subsided a lil but i still feel weak. My doc told me to drink Gatorade to keep hydrated

Congratulations. Sounds like a plan.

Just a lil update I was hospitalized on Saturday Sept 1st for dehydration n severe acid reflux. I was discharged n now I'm back in the the hospital for dehydration. I drank the contrast so they could check for a leak no leak so I am happy about that. My doctor said sometimes something in ur stomach or esophagus gets inflamed which causes you not to be able to hold anything down. I am 3 weeks post op i havent even had mushies yet. Liquids cant even stay down.But some ice cold apple juice sure taste good lol. Anyway i cant leave the hospital till I'm able to keep my liquids down sucks to be me i guess

How unfortunate you have been through all of this. I'm hoping this will be the end of the misery for you. Please update us as you can.

Sorry your not feeling well! If cold apple juice is tasting good, and it isn't bothering your sleeve, keep sipping it! Hang in there, it WILL get better!

I am almost 4 weeks out now and feeling your pain. I don't know what to do either.

So I am finally being discharged today after 1 wk in this hospital. I was severely dehydrated and had severe acid reflux. Then they thought I had pancreatitis which was a false alarm my pancreas was really inflammed from me not being to hold anything in my stomach. I have learned my lesson Im going to drink until I cant drink no more. By the way im 4 wks post op and today was the first day I have had pureed food and it actually stayed down so congrats to me on that milestone
