headaches

I had my month check up yesterday. It was so/so.

I was supposed to drive back home today which is 7 hours from where my doctors is located.

I have headaches, queezy rumbling stomach, not going to the bathroom. Barely getting 29 oz of fluids in.. and I sip all day long! But it hurts. acid reflux like mad even drinking Water.

I was happier before surgery.

Now I'm just miserable.

Are you taking a PPI? What did your dr say? You should not feel like this at 1 month out. You should be starting to feel a lot better. Make your dr address these issues before you go back.

I have to cal Thursday if I'm not better. I am dehydrated.

I dislike this. Sick of it.

I just give up....

I understand how you feel. I can attest to all those things you mentioned. I took Prilosec and gas x for acid reflux. Some times warms liquids help. I love my sugar fee Popsicles as well. But each day gets better. One day at a time. Try asking your physician for something for the acid reflux. At 8 weeks out I feel great. Just offering you hope and inspiration. Continue the hard work. It will pay off.

Good luck

To be honest I wish I will wouldn't of done this.

I didn't know how shitty id feel!

Thought life would be great.

Now I have no life.

I would of let my life be and kept working and changed my bad diet habits which wasn't fast food or junk. It was once a day meal. Work.

Now I regret not trying a little harder.

Now I'm sick every day.

Feel like death.

Inside and out.

:-(

More depressed now then ever.

Headaches, throwing up, queezy, pain.

Dehydration will cause headaches. Not sure if this is your case, but I hope you get to feeling better soon.

What's done is done. Do what you can to get the liquid in. Get a PPI (acid blocker). Once you are hydrated you will feel so much better. With an acid blocker you will be able to drink without pain. Do it, try.

Ya what's done is done.

And now I'm failing BC I don't feel good. I see narrow ended tunnel, black and cold...

I'll never recommend this procedure to anyone. Ever.

Never let something imperfect in my life affect me to make a drastic change that wasn't even healthy.

This life style isn't healthy!

Can't eat or drink.

Starve and die.

It isn't an unhealthy lifestyle. You HAVE to get your fluids in. Severe dehydration will create all of these problems you're experiencing and more. Go to the ER and get fluids before an ambulance has to take you there. You're experiencing the buyer's remorse that all of us deal with at one time or another. It's awful, I know. I nearly died from a leak. But even with my near experience I can't say I would never recommend this procedure for others. I recommend research and deep soul searching before a drastic decision is made. But as a previous poster said what's done is done! I promise, once you get your fluids in things will start getting easier. Set a timer. Drink 2oz every few minutes. Lots of people do that shortly afte surgery to insure they get their Water.

I also suggest seeing a psychiatrist or therapist that specializes in weight loss. Its a lot to deal with. A HUGE life change. You don't have to go regularly, but a session or two may give a few food coping mechanisms :)
