Nausea and vomiting are common complaints after RYGB surgery. These signs and symptoms are generally seen because of anastomotic stricture but could also be seen due to gastric bezoars. If not treated, gastric bezoars could worsen and also may lead to life-threatening complications like intestinal perforations.

Always contact your bariatric team if you have concerns about anything. You know your body, but let your doctor know if certain symptoms, such as nausea and vomiting, persist.

So explaining the definition of a bezoar would have been helpful. It can be a stone or undigested food lodged in the pouch.

I'm not sure what happened. I double-posted, tried to change the second post to something else and my real link (below) disappeared. Here's the link that was meant to accompany the message above, Sosewsue61. Sorry for the dead end.
