Throwing up 6 weeks post-op Anyone else?

Yesterday made my 6 weeks Post-op date I was sleeved on 12/6/12 and since yesterday I have been feeling really weak, sick feeling and this morning only got about an ounce down before i started to throw up (oatmeal) and have been experiencing rapid heart rate (the heart thing been going on since maybe my second week out but has increasingly got worse this week) I call the hospital and they tell me to go back to stage one for the next 2-3 days.. Uggg I'm supposed to be progressing to stage 4 today now I have to back track to stage one.. ***frustrated**** I hope I dont have a leak and they ignoring it because I am telling them all my symptoms and their solution is go back to stage one!!! Has anyone else had this issue so late after surgery? Be mindful I have never thrown up before until today outside of a cheat attempt (trail and error lol )

I'm at 10 weeks and still throw up. Eat too fast I tomes I think

I only threw up a few times but i never eat fast I take my time so it will feel like i have a normal stomach. My fiance and I's anniversary is coming up on the 31st I chose Red lobsters so I can stick with my lifestyle change I will eat slow then too.. Just so I can enjoy our time out this will be my first restaurant visit since my surgery... The only hard part will be not having the Cheddar made biscuits...lol.. Slow down love so you can enjoy the sleeve.. I hate throwing up so I know it has to annoy you.

So sorry you're going through this. Please keep us updated & I know we all will be thinking about you on the 28th & praying you finally get an answer to what the hell is going on. Glad you stood firm & got them to do the test....

Update!!! So I dont have a leak so they say lol still having issues with my heart though I am being sent to a cardiologist to be placed on a heart monitor to see what is causing the issue so Its not a leak but the cause is still unknown . So at least I am clear of the possibility of a leak.

step in the right direction hun :) You're finding answers. i hope they get to the bottom of it soon so you can proceed with life!

Yes I agree my job is a very active one and I stay on the go and walking is a trigger so I fear working.. i go back soon but can I handle it? Guess I will soon enough find out

Hope the cardiologist can help you! I don't think I eat fast, but then I remember that when I was teaching I had to eat in about 20 to 25 minutes, so slow is not slow enough at this time...Sick after lunch again today. I hate to throw up!!!!!!!

Yeah I feel you my work environment is the same when it comes to eating and you are rushed because you never know when something will happen where I work so you may atrat but not end up finishing. Smh at home its as you see fit and as you please but work will defiantly make it hard on a person

It could just be the Noro Vieus which is wicked and rampant this year. Its called the Australia strain. Either way your symproms merit abtrip to the ER or mD
