Post op difficulty 1 year later

[klmc10 0]

I am 1 year post op. My first issue was that i could not eat or drink anything for weeks. My dr kept telling me it takes time. I know my body... Something was wrong. Turned out he did an egd and my sleeve was only 5mm instead of the 18-20mm it should be. So it took 5 weeks of dilation to open it. Nightmare. Then everything i ate or drank made me sick. Turned out after losing 50 lbs in 2 months becuz i couldn't eat... Caused my gall bladder to shut down. Another surgery. Now i have kidney stones. I still cant eat or drink much of anything without nausea. food has become my enemy. I regularly feel nauseas and foggy and dizzy.

I passed out at work in Thursday and ended up in the ER and they had to give me 3 bags of fluids. I have not been back to my dr as i feel they have failed me. I have lost over 120 lbs but i feel like im dying. Need some advice on how to get in the proper nutrients in. Juicing recipes? Protein recipes? Altho many of the Protein drinks make me sick. But i need some help...

Any ideas.

Desperate!!

Im so sorry that this has happened to you, maybe you can get a second opinion from another dr to help you. I am 4 weeks out and still prefer liquid as eating is just not comfortable. Take Care

@@klmc10 That sounds awful! So sorry you have to go through all that. I hope you found a different Dr to take care of you. That one sounds horrible! I don't have any good advice If everything makes you so sick. I'm surprised you haven't been given a feeding tube to let your tummy rest after all that trauma. Have you tried any of the clear Protein Drinks like Isopure ready made drinks?

I actually just bought some. Im drinking one now. . Im having a hard time finding a new doc. The place that did my surg is one of the only in the area and most all the area docs are related to the group. I wasn't polite when I left last time. Im sure im banned... Lol

@@klmc10 I can't say I would be to polite either. Are you doing ok with the Isopure? I don't care for the taste of them but they serve the purpose.

Isopure has excellent nutrients and electrolites in it. I blend mine with sugar free lemonade or sugar free cran-grape to help get it down.

I couldnt do Isopure before but i am going to try it again. Im terrified of food now cuz everything made me feel so bad before. Im underweight now.... And scared
