When did you start feeling better?

I'm 3+ weeks post op. I'm having a hard time tolerating almost anything. Even Water is hard to get down most of the day. My doctor just started me on prilosec hoping that will help, but I have no energy and just feel ill all day.

Please tell me it will get better soon.

Hang in there! It'll get better soon. Just try to get the water down, that will make you feel better and speed up the process :)

It took me about 6 months to reach a happy state when all the problems were resolved.

Hang in there, it does truly get better. I would say is was a good six weeks before I had any energy what so ever. I struggle getting my protien in and I know that is part of the reason for me.

Week 3 was a rough week for me for some reason. I started having a lot of nausea and dr said sometimes just a week 3 thing. I got another Zofran prescription which did help the nausea, but it seemed to come and go for a while. Quite honestly I just realized today that this week has been much better and I started feeling a little more normal. I was 9 weeks post-op yesterday. So it does get better but it is slow. Enjoy the good days when you have them and rest on the bad days. I remember seeing someone say about month 3 they felt much more normal so I am really looking forward to that and hoping same is true for me!
