Question:
Too long so look in the notes below.

I have not ate in almost 4 weeks. My kidneys are starting to fail. I blood plataes, potassium, etc are very low. I had an endoscopy only thing found was a staple sticking out very far and had to be removed. I have had cat-scans, barium swallow, blood work, and more blood work. But no one can find a problem. I feel like going to bed and not getting back up. I have the foamies bad and vomit 4 or more times a day. Nothing comes up but foam and spit, because that is all I have in me. I had gastric bypass on 4/8/09 and have lost almost 130 pounds. I was doing great until about 4 weeks ago and don't know what happened. Has anyone expeirenced this before? Also my daughter found something on google called tonsil stones, I have all the symptons and they are looking at this now. I have to have antibiotic shots daily for 3 days. But if this is the issue they may have to be surgically removed. Please if you have had any issues like mine or know of someone who has tell me what happened and how they fixed it. Thank you!    — soontobeme (posted on October 7, 2009)

Sorry to hear about your troubles. I am praying that I don't run into any complications myself because while researching the unknown side effects I have finally come to the conclusion of rather than have them try to guess what's wrong I think they should just do "exploratory surgery" to see what's going on because from what I gather if it's a Hiatia Hernia it can only be found thru surgery anyway. They can't find it with any of the normal diagnois things like CAT SCans, ultrasounds,etc. I will keep you in my prayers.

Praying for you sweetie and praying for God to give the docs who treat you the wisdom to figure out what's going on. Was the kidney failure the first clue that something was going wrong?? Do they have any idea of what could be going on there??

I had Gastric Bypass on 12/1/2008, I have lost 138 lbs. I have been having simaler symptoms since May, not being able to eat, vomiting 5-8 times dialy, not having the streangth to stand or sit for more then a few minutes at a time, low mag, low petasium, low iron, I also have the toncil stones. Unfortunatly, thru Galbladder Sergery, Kidney stones, Uritor Stints, Lithroscopy, Renal Failure (Hospitolozed for a week), Endoscopy, blood tests, cat scans, PET scans, Ultra sounds, baruim enima/swallow, my Dr.'s are not any closer to figuring out what is wrong. They did test on my hormones last week and found some issues, going to see an endocronoligist in November, maybe, just maybe there will be answers. I have no answers, but atleast you are not alone. It is so frustrating and eventually becomes very dipressing, to be so sick for so long without answers. Hopefully they have better luck in a diagnosis for you. (please excuse the spelling)
