Thanks guys. I was the same way with food and Protein shakes! My doctor just thought that I needed some anti nausea medication.. He changed his mind when I couldn't even keep Water down. :( I just had a ct scan so now I'm just waiting for results. I'll keep you all posted! I hope you feel better too Jen!

I hope you both feel better.

But I'm glad you were able to make it to the hospital to have yourself checked out.

And yes please keep us updated.

I'm at the same hospital I had surgery at. They said everything looks ok. They don't know why I'm in pain or why I'm throwing up everything. They also think my stomach is producing a lot of acid so they had me drink this nasty numbing stuff to calm it down. They won't send me home just yet. They want to keep and eye on me and they want me to feel a little better. I'm glad that everything looked ok though! I'm hoping my surgeon can stop in and see me before I leave

Oo yeah it helped a ton! They said I've got some acid issues going on they are giving me a prescription for zofran and some anti acid meds and I'll be on my way home! My surgeon said if I'm not better in 48 hours to come back and see him.. I'm hoping all goes well!!

My doc put me on an anacid perscription when I left the hospital. I believe she does that on a regular basis for at least 6 months for patients because they want to make sure an ulcer doesn't start up while healing. I hope you're feeling better and the meds help!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
