I had my gastric bypass May 25th, 2016. It's been close to two weeks. I feel so sick to my stomach. I'm overwhelmed , I can't seem to follow, my drinking, crushing my meds, and Vitamins. And eat puree food. I'm scared, . Someone please help me through this.

Aww you are so fresh out from surgery and it is very overwhelming.

I had mine on May 13 and just today I can say I am starting to feel better. I had some complications so i took some steps back but everyone heals at their own pace. You have to listen to your body. I still can't meet my water and protein goal but each day I do my best and I know eventually I will get there. It's scary, I know, but hang in there, do best you can with time you will get there.

Are you still taking pain meds? They make some people feel really nauseaous. Hope you feel better soon-you will!

I was nauseas for a long time and continued to take Zofran during that time. If you don't have an anti-nausea med, call your dr and see if they will give you one (preferably the one that dissolves under your tongue as it works better). It is all very overwhelming in the beginning but I promise it gets easier! I don't know if this helps, but posted here http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/369473-one-year-surgiversary/ about my 1 year post-op yesterday. Maybe it will give you a little encouragement in these really tough days. (If you read my very early posts from last year, you will see how miserable I was at the beginning too!)

Don't fret the foods... I had my bypass on the 16th of May. While I've been a textbook case, when I've tried to incorporate too much (or new) foods, I've take a back step twice now.

Do what you can, and as long as you are getting in decent amounts of Water, you are doing well!

What meds are you having to crush and take?
