Help! 4Months Post-op and dry heaving

As my tag line says I am 4 months post-op and I am dry heaving quite often after eating and some times even if I haven't eaten. The only things I am able to eat are fruits and veggies. Typical day I eat one orange and a cup of mushrooms/carrots and on occasion I can eat shrimp. All other Protein makes me nauseaus. Anyone else having these issues?

So tired of having no energy and unable to eat anything. When will this get better? I am sooooooo regretting the surgery. At this point I wish I never had it. I want this feeling to change but right now I am mentally stuck.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thank you everyone for your advice. I am going back to the liquid stage until I see my Dr. I will update as soon as I can. Much appreciated

I agree try liquids and talk to your Dr. I also went through this about the same time. To be honest mine was stress. I have learned really quickly that my new stomach and body doesn't handle stress or getting upset the same way any more. I get nausea and then if I eat it causes the dry heaving. Another time I would dry heave is during brushing my teeth. I felt like I couldn't breath and too much foam and I would start heaving.

Sorry you are going through this. It has calmed down for me in learning how to adjust to my emotions.
