Complete Frustration! Help
I had my RNY in Oct 2007, have lost 180 lbs but still have issues with keeping food down. I get dizzy all the time. I have had all my levels checked and everything is good. Any suggestions? I have gone back to protein shakes and soft food......I am completely frustrated. My Surgeon just says to take a step back and try again.
Hi Kathi
I have had friends who have had these same issues and they went in and had an endoscopy done. It is possible that maybe your stoma needs to be stretched. I have had 2 scopes done and they aren't bad at all. It might be worth having it checked out. If your stoma is small, they will stretch it to make the opening bigger and for the friends of mine with these issues, it helped them to eat "regular" food and not just shakes.
Hope this helps.
