So had my surgery yesterday! Initially everything was ok!

However I just can’t stop vomiting! It’s horrible. Everytime I stand or sit up I vomit, everytime I take a sip of Water I vomit. Even when I take liquid meds I vomit.. so I’m feeling very sorry for myself 😩

has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks

I don’t have any advice except to let your doctor know. I’m hoping you feel better soon

@eholmes89 I know it seems nearly impossible (it happened to me too) but keeping hydrated is definitely the most important thing right now. Speak to your doctor about the difficulties you’re having, Try to walk as much as you tolerate that seems to help too.

Surgery was scheduled for 7/17 & today 7/14 I got a call from central scheduling & my Dr's office that the hospital is under staffed & has no beds.... What a sad day... [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24][emoji24]
I was trying to get this all done & be onto stage 3 by the time school started. Now I have no clue when it will be rescheduled for...
Now back to waiting & Praying it will be very, very soon.

I am so sorry! I can’t imagine getting all ready and psyched up only to get that call. Hoping it can be rescheduled soon

Sue2, I pray they can reschedule for 7/21 or 7/28 it won't be as much time before school but better than middle to end of August.

I’ll be praying with you! I understand the need before school. I have kids and used to teach. I’ve taken last year and this next year off to try to get healthy. Hope all goes well with you

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
