I’m almost two months out and I’ve noticed in the last two weeks I went from being constipated to have diarrhea every time I eat. The last few days I can barely keep anything but liquid down and any time I take a bite of anything no matter how small it feels like a brick in my stomach. I’ve even been vomiting. Any advice or anyone go through this?

I would check with your doctor. Can you keep plain liquids like Water and Gatorade down? It could be lactose intolerance but check with the pros before you get any more dehydrated.

check with your clinic in case it's something like a stricture. It may not be - but not being able to keep anything down is a symptom of that. If so, it's an easy fix.

as the above person said, it could also be some kind of food intolerance. Just call your clinic - they'll know what to do.

Sounds like a stricture. I know you’re thinking “oh I’m loosing weight!” Sorry to inform you that you are also loosing muscle, including heart muscle. Call your clinic. I’ve been told these things are easy to clear up with an endoscopy procedure. If the clinic doesn’t answer go to the emergency room. Sending my best-Meg

      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!

      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!!
