Hi I'm 17 days out and have been feeling pretty good , but today I woke up shaky, I got my protein drink down then my heart started racing , I thought I was gonna faint I laid down and bam I got diarrhea ( sorry if its TMI) so I slept for awhile then I got up , I felt hungry so I got some apple sauce omg I started gaging like I was gonna throw up , and my heart started racing again .... Wtf after about 5 min I seemed ok and was able to eat the apple sauce ... I've had diarrhea on and off , keep trying to drink water ... Idk what the deal is ... Anyone else had anything like this ... Ps for the last 3 hours I've been fine ...

im thinking maybee call your doctor and let em know, i havent experienced that and im about 22 days out

I'm sorry you are having problems. I didn't go through this, but I would contact your counselor to reassure yourself that you aren't having low sugar problems or potassium problems. Are you taking your nutritional supplements daily? This is very important, especially because you won't be getting the vitamins and minerals you need to heal. I had problems with stomach issues for quite a few weeks after the surgery. I threw up often because I didn't always know what worked for me. Each person is different. It's been nearly two years since my surgery, but I still have a hard time digesting rice and heavy pasta. I feel fine though with nearly everything else I eat, including spicy Mexican and Chinese. My weight loss was less then expected, but I have physical problems that made exercise in the early stages impossible. I'm still losing weight though without trying to, only very slowly, which I like. So hang in there. It takes awhile for your stomach to heal completely, but it will feel normal again, just not as soon as you'd like :=}

I had problems about 3 weeks out with vertigo and nausea. My doctor told me to boost my protein to 90 grams per day, and increase my water to 80 ounces. I found that when I boosted my calorie count above 850 that things started to normalize for me. You could also have a stomach virus that is making you ill and giving you the diarrhea. The low sugar Gatorade / PowerAde would help replace any electrolytes that are low too. I hope you start feeling better soon!

Is your heart fluttering? Because that could be a sign of low potassium/electrolytes. Maybe try a Powerade Zero or the no calorie Gatorade

No not a flutter more like pounding , u also noticed it after I drank my protein shake tonight ... I feel fine now except I still have loose bowel
