6 Months Out And Still Have Tummy Upset



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery 5-12-12 and still dealing with tummy upset and vomiting. I have very few foods I can eat. I went into surgery weighing 316 and I am 205 today. The weight lose is gear , but my good days are far and few between. My highest weight 4 years ago was 400.

That's probably my biggest fear- not ever feeling better. I'm two and a half weeks out, still battling soft liquid foods. Not necessarily nausea, but I don't like how it feels when I eat. Doc said focus on Water intake first, then Protein, then soft liquid foods if I can, but let's face it, if all I can ever tolerate is water I'll die.

I'll be following this thread, looking for inspiration and hope.

You do feel better. Everyone body is different & it takes the body time to adjust.

Girl I swear we are in the same church chour :) I have been in the hosiptal twice in the past two week. They finial found that I have two stamples going into my pouch which was causing pain were every time I ate or drank it felt like knife in my chest and stomach. They also found that my small intestines are enlarged. They are hoping that will go down but if not or if the pain does not go away I might have to have a feeding tube put in. I am hoping not. I just want to be better and get a life outside of the house without taking a bag or pills :)

I was only four days out but had a stricture in my small intestine. Let me tell you, you can't tolerate even Water. So make sure your dr know all the details. I had another surgery yesterday now it seems like it's just the pain meds making me sick.

There are about three different prescriptions they can offer you as well. One is a patch for behind the ear. Good luck!

      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.
