Hello all, I have not posted in a while because, I have not been feeling good. I was admitted over the weekend back to GW because of the bad feeling I was having in my stomach. The doctor said that my bloodwork was fine and I should have been taking the prolosec medication that gave me for my stomach. I explained that I was not taking it because it said take with food and Im still not eating. I take a bit here and there but its not enough to call myself eating. Every time that I eat, the food tasts nasty. When I take a couple of bits, I feel like I need to . When I stop eating the feeling goes away. That is why I dont eat. I knew that my tasts my change but I didnt think that it would be like this. The doctor also said that I may have a ulcer and I need to get a upper GI to check. He  finally told me that what I was going through was typical for a lot of post-ops but it really didnt make me feel better because Im tired of my stomach hurting all the time. It hurts so much some time that I cant get out of the bed . I just hope that this will pass and I will get better. The doctor did give me some medication to treat an ulcer. I will be taking all medications and vitiams now. I going to try the protien shakes again because he said that I needed it but they tasts bad too. If anyone can give me some ideas about what other things I can take for protien instead of the shakes right now, I would appreciate it.

Hello all, Its been a while since my last post. Im still having complications with eating. I just dont want anything. Its hard to make myself eat.  I have discovered that I cant drink the protien shakes anymore. It does not taste good at all. I also cant drink cold water or eat bread. This is harder than I thought it would be. Im still sleepy all the time. I went to the doctors,yesterday and she said that this is normal for a lot of people. I know that she means well but that didnt make me feel any better. Im so frustrated. I have lost 30 lbs since the surgery. I dont know how since Im not really eating. The doctor says that I eating enough. If I wasnt , I would not have lost any weight and I could have gained. I tried to explain again that Im not eating but she is not getting it.
