vomiting 4 weeks- delayed vomiting

[NCSLEEVE2017 0]

Hi Everyone-

My surgery was on Jan. 24 with Dr. Maytorena in Mexico. It went very well and I had no problems. I have been "eating" Clear Liquids and then Protein Shakes after a couple of weeks. My problem is that I am about 4 weeks out and I cannot have more than a couple of drinks or a few spoons of very soft foods without getting nauseated, a "lump" in my esophagus/stomach valve area and eventually I vomit. I immediately end up feeling much better but I can't be getting much nutrition.

A positive is that I am down 35 lbs but I am wondering if it is almost too fast.

80 oz of Protein and 60-80 oz of Water is a dream....no way at this point.

Thoughts? suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Are you taking any anti acid meds? It could help if you began taking Nexium

Hi Anne....I am on an anti acid that was given in the "toolbox" of meds from surgery. I may switch specifically to Nexium to see if it helps. Thanks!
