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

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
