I'm trying to decide what is wrong with me. For the last several days I have been extremely nauseous. I gag a lot and heave. Nothing comes up. I could have the flu or a GI bug. I constantly feel a pressure/annoyance over my mid sternum. It goes away for a bit each time I heave. My gall bladder is gone. So stricture or flu/GI bug?

I started to feel like that after surgery. And I ended up having bronchitis. There are so many people with germs so you never really know.

Nausea and pressure? I never considered bronchitis.

With the flu I would assume you would be running a fever. It could be just a stomach bug but that usually causes vomiting and diarrhea. Could be something your eating or drinking not agreeing with you. Or pregnancy!??

I would assume fever with flu, too. I'm also not achy at all. I'm 100% sure I'm not pregnant:). Though my 10 yo would love that. I haven't eaten anything in 2 days cause of this pressure and the heaving. Maybe I'm just wacko;) I think I'll go to my family doc today and get her opinion. Part of me is starting to wonder if it's not just severe gastric reflux.

I had stricture at 4 to 5 weeks out I could not eat or drink without feeling sick tell your gastric bypass nurse or doctor asap not sure how far out u are though so cant be sure of it...

Yes a stricture would cause that too. You definitely need to call and get checked out! Hope you feel better and keep us updated
