Stomach Flu

[Authoa 17]

HI,

Has any one had stomach flu after your Gastric Sleeve? I ask because I came down with the Stomach flu on 10/26 and I am still dealing with painful cramps and Diarrhea. I ended up in the emergency room for dehydration and pain. They ct scanned and my sleeve was fine. Hydrated me up and sent me home with medicine for the cramps. Anytime a eat anything it goes straight through me.

I have had stomach flu be for and it was no where near as bad as this. I am really not getting much support from my surgent on this either. I went and seen my regular doctor and same, Stomach Flu. Seems odd that I have had it for 1 week now. I'm I being overly concerned? Is this normal?

I have been stressing out over this because I have lost 4 lb in one week, because everything just runs through me.

Any help would be greatly appriciated

Thank you!

I actually did but didn’t think anything of it bc my daughter was sick as well. I spent 48 hours with stomach issues and couldn’t eat anything. I was really weak but back to normalish by 3rd day

hope you feel better super soon!!

do you eat yogurt?? gut bacteria can get messed up with sickness and it will help replenish the bacteria needed for digestion.
