I can't eat anything



Recommended Posts

I am on full liquids and I can't get a thing down to eat. I drink fluids but not enough. I was tolerating food well. But now I can barely swallow a drink. Is anyone else going through this?

No that is strange. You said you were handling food well what type of food ? Have you contacted your surgeon. What are you feeling

I had something close. I got nausuas just looking at any thick liquids and so sick of liquids. I started changing every 8 oz. to change the flavor of the liquid.< /p>

I am confused it says you are on full liquids? What kind of food are you trying to keep down? It says you were tolerating food? Just curious what stage you are really at? How far post op are you?

I just had my surgery on the 14th of October. I was drinking Soup and Protein Shakes. I am feeling weak. I can't get up to 1000 calories. I am barely doing 500 calories. I don't know what changed.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
