Has anyone had the stomach flu? This is the first time I have truly thrown up. I had things go down and come right back up, but never the deep down heaving type of vomiting. I hate to vomit to begin with. Now it feels like a cat trying to get up a hairball! It feels like it is literally turning my stomach inside out. It has calmed, but I cant do anything but watered down sf propel. Is it always going to be like and feel like this? I was sleeved 10/17/17. No Vitamins, no meds, nothing.

So sorry you're feeling so rough. Couldn't hurt to put a call in to your surgeon's office and see if they have any advice about going through a nasty tummy bug three months out. They'll likely give you signs to watch for if it's serious enough for medical intervention.

Yeah, there are a lot of nasty gut bugs going around right now. They've closed schools around here cause it's so bad. My brother's whole house had it over Christmas.

This, too, shall pass. Sorry.

Thank you. I did put in a call to the office and if I cant keep Fluid down I need to go to the er. I have to be careful because this soon out it is easy to get an ulcer from vomiting, considering my reflux issues. They would give me iv zofran if I go to the er. Thank you! I hope it passes quickly!

Hope it gets better. Going around here too and I'm scared to death to catch it. Things should be healed, so hopefully you can't damage anything

Thank you all. Last night I had no choice but to call my surgeon. I told him there was no way I could sit in the ER for hours. I see him Wednesday, so he prescribed zofran. A little nauseas, but I am able to keep meds down. I just havent tried the Calcium. Probably tomorrow. My surgeon is awesome and I was so glad he was the dr on call! Thank you! Be careful guys, its nasty!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
