Don't Get Me Wrong!

Don't get me wrong. I don't regret my surgery at all. 2 Mo's out. I was doing great until 5 weeks. Been sick since then on and off. I take my vitamins faithfully. Drink 30g Protein shake for breakfast and most days it stays. Unfortunately, today it didn't stay and everything I eat or drink comes up too. Oh well one thing/minute at a time. I will get through this and will feel better again soon. Had an UPPER GI and doc says everything is looking good. So I guess I'm ok.
Thanks for letting me rant!

Have to echo Maria's reply.

Also, there just may be foods to which your pouch is saying, "Oh no...nuh-uh...no you don't!" I had that happen early on. It's just sensitive...but that may go away after a while. Everyone is different.

If it seems like it's getting harder to get stuff down, you may have a stricture.  Which I don't think can be seen by upper GI.  They usually do a scope to check for it.  And can fix it while they're in there if you do have one.

If you continue to be sick on and off, please persist with your doctor.  Don't let them just bru**** off or tell you that you just have to live with it.  Something is causing it and most likely it can be fixed if they make the effort to figure out what it is.

I agree with Kelly's advice.  In addition, make sure you don't get dehydrated since you're having trouble keeping fluids down right now.

Hang in there.  Chew well, sip slowly and measure your food.  Relax, with time, it will get better.
