Meggie has some answers!
Well we found some thing today. I had a test to see how my stomach was emptying and discovered it wasn't. It only passed 10% of what was in it in a 2hr time period. Stomach is basically paralised and not moving. We think it is my migraine medicine that has caused this! The meds do have all kinds tummy side effects and it is the only new thing in my life so we are reducing the amount and going back to clear liquids. Can't even have jello!
We shall see will probably be in hospital till till late next week but at least we are figuring this out!

MEGGIE-Just throwing a thought out there-did you take Topamax before it went generic? Last yr? Yr before? I've never had the tummy issues you have, of course, but it DID effect my guts some when my Topamax went generic-there's always a little "tinkering" involved in ingredients, depending on who is doing the manufacturing.....Like I said...just a thought

So glad you are getting some answers this time around !! So sorry that it has come to this.........
Those dang migranes............I"m so glad that I don't have to deal with that or insomnia !!
So - you would think that everything would be going into your stomach - and you'd be gaining weight instead of LOSING it !! huh? Interesting
Luv you (((((((((((((Hugggsss)))))))))))))))))

- Pease check out Dr. Connie Stapleton's Website. A lot of good information on there for all WLS patients regardless of the surgery you chose. Good luck to all and I'm here for you if you want to send me an email. I'll answer it as soon as possible.
