March 3, 201313 yr Hi. I am 4 weeks post-op and have thrown up once on Wed and 5 times between last night and today. Anyone else have or had this poroblem. If so, how do you remedy it and what do you eat to get out of it and not continue to vomit. Thanks! I had the same problem at 4 weeks. I called my surgeon and they wanted me to have an EGD (scope),had my EGD on Friday and found out I had a stricture. They dilated it and I am doing wonderful now. I know its probably not what you want to hear but if it makes you feel better then it is worth it. I would call your surgeon ASAP as you do not want to dehydrate. Best of luck and keep us posted.
March 3, 201313 yr Same problem here at 4 weeks. I threw up for 4 days. By the time I called my doctor and went in I was dehydrated and low on potassium. I also had a stricture. They dilated me as well and I'm keeping down full liquids. My doctor scolded me for not calling sooner. Don't make that mistake.
March 7, 201313 yr my surgury was jan 14th and have not had any issuse with throwing up however now that i am at a solid food stage thats all i do everytime i try solids. i went back to liquids myself and am going to call the surgeon to let him know. good luck everyone!!!!

March 14, 201313 yr What a stricture? He explained its the scar tissue forming at the bottom of the pouch where it meets the intestines. Sometimes too much scar tissue makes the opening too small, so they have to stretch it out a little bit. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk
March 31, 201313 yr I have had the stricture procedure dont twice already and fixing to have my 3rd one. I have asked if there is anytjing I can do to help it not happen and my dr said no some people just have it more than others! I hate having them but the procedure isnt painful just a little gasy after it! Good luck with getting it fixed
April 3, 201313 yr Im 4trs post op doing great now the early days were pretty tuff unable to drink or eat much they stretched the opening to the stomach three times in 3 month looking back if i had more info i dont think it would have been necessary getting info from the dr was like pulling teeth most of what i learned was thru trial and err remember drink as much eater ss you can
