So I thought I had it all down yesterday, I had 60g protein, 64 oz water, took all my vitamins, b12, calcit...but today I've been sooo nauseas all day long. I drank a light muscle milk, ate a jello, and just had a few bites of cream of wheat. Everytime I sip water I feel like I'm going to throw up. Its the tiniest sips too. I have no fever. Throughout the night I woke up in a large amount of pain in my left side where one of my incisions is. It felt like someone was stabbing me and twisting the blade. Please help. Does these feelings go away?

Always call your surgeon 1st and see what they think. I had horrible lower left side pain for days after my surgery and also on my right where they took out my gallbladder. I guess everything is just sore from being moved around. I know also when I need to have a bowel movement I will get stomach pains/cramps so it could be just gas or that you need to have a bowel movement!

Yes gas pain and pressure can be monsterous! I just found out today that i have to switch to Lactaid as opposed to skim milk because im lactose intolerant. Milk has alot of protein so i was using skim milk in the protein shakes instead of water and it was causing alot if gas and pain. They said its not uncommon for ryn patients to be or become lactose intolerant. Walking has helped alot to ease gas pain and pressure. Now that i know there will be no regular milk for me!....yogurt and aged cheese they say is alot lower in lactose....looking forward to having yogurt again in the near future! Yay! Never really liked milk anyway

It sounds like u may have a stricture or closing. Call ur doctor right away just to be on the safe side...I experienced a lot of pain n discomfort at first until I discovered that I had an intolerance to dairy. Best wishes to u

Yep constantly in touch with the bariatric nurse and since im off lactose products i feel like a million bucks ....energy level is up and they advanced my diet to include yogurt so i had a wonderful 2 oz of yogurt today with no complications ...and i zumba'd with the kids (big hug!)
