I’m 5 months post op Duodenal Switch. For the last week I’ve experienced nausea early in the morning and again in the evening. I’ve thrown up a few times. I haven’t been sick at all since surgery, so I wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this months after surgery? Thanks!

Is this after taking Vitamins? Or perhaps a strong caffeine drink on an empty stomach?

I get nausea on occasion, but have yet to actually throw up. Most of the time it's after I eat something that simply doesn't agree with me. The worst was after my nutritionist gave me the green light to add low carb bread back into my diet and I had a low carb wheat bread in which I decided I will NEVER eat wheat bread EVER AGAIN! I had brain surgery in 2017 and the nausea I had after that was the worst I'd ever experienced in my life UNTIL I ate the damn wheat bread! I was told you don't get dumping syndrome after having the DS or DS Loop but 15 minutes after I ate my stomach started to hurt sooooo bad and the nausea was HORRENDOUS! I was sweating and shaking and it was horrible! I took TWO anti-nausea meds and I STILL felt sick! So the sick feeling could be either something you added recently into your diet or from hunger (I get nauseous if I go too long without eating) or if you're female maybe pregnancy? (hopefully not though 'cause that's risky as hell 5 months out)

@TXDSI had a lot of issues the first 9 months. My surgical team was helpful. I’d give yours a call.

      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! 😞
