Guest guest Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 Hi Starlet, You might want to check with your doctor. I was only allowed full liquids my first couple weeks out. i.e. jello, puddying, broth, etc. you might be eating too much soft foods too fast. Good luck and God Bless!!

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 that's what happened to me. i was nausas all the time the last week and went to the dr. he put me in the hospital ran a bunch of tests and did an EGD scope. however, i was awake for it. they numb your throat my gargling and drinking this stuff. they said during my healing process i healed 3/4 of the way shut. they ballooned it opened and i've felt great since. it's really not a painful procedure i am just a gagger..lol. laurette 4/23/04 open RNY 309/290/252/150 St. Charity Cleveland, Ohio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 Starlet, I'm so sorry you're having problems keeping food down, you poor thing! Have you called the doctor? Did they have suggestions? Have you tried sticking with protein shakes and liquids and gradually working back up to more solid foods?

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 Can you keep anything down at all?

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 At 11 days out, I wasn't allowed to eat anything resembling food. I was still on a " full liquids " diet. Milk, protein shakes, smoothies, stuff like that. My surgeon told me that my stomach needed to heal before I could put food in it. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon! in Indiana Open RNY 2/25/04 265.4/192/135 5'5 " Age 28 -- keep throwing up i am so upset i cannot keep much down... i have thrown up lima beans and crackers and crystal light.. i am so upset.. oh mash potatoas also.. i am getting sick of it.. it hurts my tummy when i do that,,, i am 11 days out of surgery.. any suggestion starlet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
