Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I have a patient who admitted for observation who had a Roux-en-Y in February of this year. We do not do surgery here, but I do see some patients pre and post op. About a month after surgery she began having problems with vomiting. She was not eating large amounts of food or eating too fast. She has been able to tolerate fewer and fewer foods over time. She recently had a dilitation. She is eating a small amount of food (she tolerated 1/8 cup of applesause at lunch), but continues with nausea, dizziness, dry heaves and a head ache. She has not had good luck with tolerating protein supplements in the past, so she is declining them now. She did agree to try some milk with beneprotein this afternoon. Her lipase and amylase are elevated. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
