I never thought I would say this but, I'm nearly to the point of regretting my surgery. I was sleeved on 10-9-13 and have thrown up everyday since. today was a bad day. I have vomited 5 times today. I am following all the rules and just can't seem to get a break. I saw my Dr 4 days ago and he doesn't seem to be too worried. he did tell me to stay on stage 1 diet and not to advance yet. I'm so hungry and thirsty. I chose the sleeve so that I could loose slowly and enjoy my weight loss. since I can't hold anything down, IV already lost 25 pounds and obviously I'm not "enjoying" vomiting, muscle pain from vomiting, headaches from vomiting and dehydration, weakness and feeling wiped out all the time. Please tell me I'm not the only one who has felt with this. And PLEASE tell me it will get better.......

Wow. I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm not taking anything for pain so I think I can rule that out. I'm just so sick of vomiting. As a nurse I know that I need to stay hydrated and get my protein in, but I feel like I'm taking 1 step forward and 5 steps back. ugh.

I had a very similar experience. I was sleeved on June 26th 2013, and for 10 weeks I suffered from constant vomiting and nausea. I had to have two endoscope procedures with dilation after my original surgery and it seemed like things improved after that. But it was a long process and I had "buyer's remorse" for those 11 weeks. I am now 16 weeks out and I am so pleased with my journey so far. I hate vomiting, and still do maybe once or twice a week(progress). But it is so much better. I just think some of us take longer to heal after surgery. Be patient, stay in touch with your doctor if the vomiting persist and don't get too down. Just keep sipping, and eating soups, protein shakes etc..... Hang in there, it is going to get better.
