4 Days Post Op Problem



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, I had gastric bypass on March 8. I did great inthe hospital no nausea or vomiting. I had broth, jelloIsopure and ice chips. The doc said to add Protein Shakes when I got home. I came home Thursday, that evening I had one Premier Protein shake and later 1 oz Jello. I was fine able to take all meds. Yesterday I got up drank a shake too some meds a few hours later had jello and took pain pill with jello. I then got the worst pain under my breast bone and down front left side and was nauseated. It took about 45 till I vomited all the jello and pain pill. I felt somewhat better but not much. Four hours later I tried more jello and pain pill I vomited all up. I was and have been in so much pain since yesterday and my stomach is making all sorts of noises. I feel nauseated and full up to the back of my throat. I'v only had sips of Water today and they make it worse. I called the dietician, she said to go back to ice chips and I have since yesterday..not helping And no pain med since yesterday morn. Can you advise?

You should call your doctor. Maybe you can't handle the pill form yet. When I was discharged I got liquid pain meds.

yeah, call your doctor's office. I had to crush all my meds and could only drink sips of stuff at a time - but you can't be throwing up all the time - you will get dehydrated. Your doctor's office should have someone to call even after hours.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
