Having a hardtime keeping my food down

Is anyone else having a hard time eating? It seems like everytime I eat, it comes back up. I even have a hard time drinking most liquids. I thought I would do better when I reached the 10 week mark, but I haven't. I have a friend who had WLS in June. Seven weeks after surgery I took her out to lunch and she was able to eat about 1/2 of a regular meal- no vomiting, no problem.I am still having to eat very soft, mushy foods in order to keep them down. Please tell me that this will go away. (You may even lie if you want too)

Karen Nope, no lie's here Please call your surgeon first thing Monday morning. You might have a stricture. From what I hear they are common and easy to correct. Your opening may not be large enough to let food pass through. My .02 cents Sheryl

Thanks. I am going to call him. .

Yes, call your doctor a.s.a.p. because you need to get all your nutrition. It may be a stricture and I've heard that the procedure to correct it is done on an out patient basis and solves the problem.

Yes, I agree with the others ... plus, it happened to me too, for quite a few days. Once I called my surgeon, they set me up to have an endoscopy, and once that was done, I felt like a new person. You shouldnt wait too long on it ... the sooner, the better you will feel. And the endoscopy is no big deal at all. Susan

I agree with everyone!!!! take care of you.... Ann

I just went through the same thing and had an endoscopy yesterday and I can eat and drink!! It is wonderful!! I felt just like you describe. It will go away after you go to the dr and he takes care of it!! And I am not lying! Good luck, you're in my prayers! Christ's peace, Connie (-59)
