For a week and half I was feeling good. Now im back to feeling like I did.
I have the like this werid feeling in my throat and chest.  I went back to having the dry heaves &  just feeling like crap.

I already had been in the hospital for this and they found a small irritation in my pouch. They have ran all the test they possibly could do and they found nothing.

Has anyone went through this...It really makes me wish i never had the surgery 4 weeks ago.

Why is your pouch irritated, did they say?  I know that I had a very hard time adjusting to eating the correct foods, and for months and months, I lived on refried beans with cheese, until I was able to get down more solid foods.  It just took me a very long time and I was constantly vomiting or running to the bathroom for the other problem.  Make sure whatever you are eating, you do it very slowly.  Chew everything more and when you think you are done chewing, chew some more.  Drink your water slowly, just sip it and don't worry about getting alot in right now, just get as much as you can, but don't work on getting 8-8 oz worth.  Everything takes time.  I hope you make it to the support group meeting on Sat in San Bernardino, it would be good to meet you and talk to you in depth more on what is going on.

They said it was a small irritation. That was it.

I won't be able to make to the group. I promised my friend I would go to her group. I would have loved to met people and learn portions.

My hubby thinks im over eatting. I never feel like im full. But when im full im vomiting. The dry heaves are the worst though.

Maybe next time. I also go to the support group at Parkview Hospital, in Riverside

Sorry you aren't feeling well sweetie. One thing I wanted to mention from what you said in a response, it takes awhile for the full feeling to come, like 4-6 weeks or more. When they do our surgery, the nerves are cut so it takes awhile for the nerves to work again. So DON'T be eating till you are full, be eating the amount you are suppose to by your surgeon's protocol!!! We really should measure things, I didn't in the beginning and I regret it!
I'm not trying to flame you, just trying to help! Please don't regret having your WLS, it will get better! Hang in there and keep going back to the hospital if you need to!
