Call your doctor! I have strep throat and a sinus infection my doctor told me take anything I want to if it's not gone in a few days "4" go to a urgent care or make an appointment with my pcp.

My doctor said that throwing up is NEVER normal after the sleeve... He said if you feel sick to call the office and get a Rx called in for you. NOT fun. Good luck!!

If your doctor said you have the stomach flu, he should also tell you what to eat or drink. Try broth and gatorade. Add your Protein if you can tolerate. I have colitis and I had surgery 4 days ago. My problem isn't it coming out the top end, just the bottom (sorry).

I am going to try rice milk next as dairy makes the problem worse. I can mix bananas into the Protein so that helps. As do the HUGE antiobiotic pills that i have to cut up into 8s to get down. Hang in there

Thanks. I haven't called or seen a dr. For this as it just started this.morning. My husband.had it a couple of days ago.

I'm not throwing up just stomach cramps, diarrhea (sorry tim) light headache and lightheaded.

I had some crackers earlier but went right thru.

I'm drinking some crystal light.

      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! 😞
