I was sleeved 11/18/19, 2 weeks after surgery I was totally fine but now I’m nauseas, dizzy, can’t eat for almost 3 weeks. I explained this to my surgeon but he just says to drink Water. I am in bed most of the time I’m awake, I have zero energy, my eyes are constantly dizzy and I’m worried. I went to the ER & they said it was a UTI. I can’t keep anything down and honestly feel like my body is shutting down. Idk who to talk to or what to do :’( I’m starting to think it’s my gallbladder but I am not to sure.
Anybody have advice ?

Seriously dehydration will make you feel all of these things and will make getting Protein in even harder.

You have got to do anything to get the Fluid in. Drink warm bouillon for sodium. Drink G2 gatorade or diluted juice with Water. Do whatever you must do to get the fluids in you.

Sorry you are experiencing this scary time.

All symptoms of dehydration. I second Fluffychix's suggestions and add Jello, popsicles, and Powerade. If you're that sensitive, you may want to try Pedialyte.

Symptoms of gallbladder are severe pains in the right upper quadrant/right flank area and does not include dizziness/weakness/etc.

Make every effort to get some fluids in. It seems weird that dehydration makes it so you either don't want to drink or can't keep it down, but that's the god's honest truth.

I agree - not your gallbladder, it's likely dehydration. Can you go to an IV bar or something similar to jump start your hydration?

It really does sound like dehydration. Keep sipping, sipping, sipping Water all day long.

      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! 😞
