Not feeling great.

For the past week (especially the last three days) I have not been feeling great. I have no desire to eat or drink anything. Water is not going down great (very gurgly), which concerns me because usually I love drinking water and I rely on it for hydration. I am feeling really tired and have some stomach upset like nausea. I can't seem to tolerate eggs, which is new for me. Anybody feel this way at almost 3 months out. Should I get in touch with the clinic?

I'm certainly not where you are by any stretch of the imagination but I think a quick call to the Clinic would be a good idea.

You've been doing so great and then to have this might be something to have checked out.

I haven't felt great the last few days myself. My stomach is really off. I'm thinking the flu might be making the rounds.

Do you take your vitamins religiously? Still taking Prevacid? Wouldn't hurt to call your centre. Something is off. Good luck.

Calling the clinic is a good idea. In the meantime, try something other than water to stay hydrated. Warm broth might help.

Of course you should see your doctor. Dehydration is nothing to fool around with. You can go downhill quick.

Oh no... I'm so sorry to learn you're not feeling well Barb.

I echo what everyone else is saying. Yes, either see your doctor or call/go to your clinic. It may be a simple flu, it could be a complication like an ulcer. The reality is as post ops, we don't know. Best to be checked by a pro.

Let us know. ((Hugs))

I was not a fast loser but who cares as long as you get there! I know the newbies check the trackers and the signatures so although I kind of lost track of how the rest of the weight came off, you should know that it was not fast and furious but it was slow and steady!

current BMI 24.7 that, my friends, is NORMAL!!! Strong is the new pretty!
