Ok I am 3 week post surgery and everything has been going great. I am still on my mushy diet and last night went to dinner with my husband. I think I overdid it a bit but not horribly. I did have 3 glasses of wine throughout the night. Well at about 3 am this morning I woke up and I am terribly sick. I am vomiting and have diarhea. This has gone on all night and still is this morning. I can't keep water down. I don't think I have a fever. Have I caused a problem with my band or is it more likely that I am sick? Thanks for your help!

I would recommend to call your doctor. also the alcohol could have irritated the stoma. I didnt have a drink until 3 or 4 months out.

You should not be drinking alcahol so early out, it has probably imflamed your pouch. Your body is still healing- you may have a good old fashioned hang over!

If you dont have any fever or otherwise feel unwell, I'd say 3 glasses of wine on your tender stomach, into a digestive system that's not been fed solid food for weeks would be enough to give you diarrhoea, and vomiting too if you tend towards that.
