Ledaizey, are you able to keep fluids down?  This sounds like a great reason to call your surgeon and have a telephone review of events, maybe even a visit if this continues.  Do your best to get in your fluids.  You are still very fresh from surgery and are healing.  Hope you feel much better by the time you read this response.  Sugar free popsicles, sips of water, crystal light, fluid to keep you hydrated.  This will pass, quickly I pray.  Hugs

Give your doctor a call and see what he has to say.  I am sort of going through the same thing right now. Things that didn't bother me early post-op are starting to get to me now.  I have vomitted a few times which is very rare for me, even before surgery.  It's probably nothing to worry about; even before surgery there were days when we just didn't feel great but since surgery it does get a little scarier when something doesn't feel right.

If it continues, definitely give your doctor a call.  I hope you feel better.

Hey  Ledaizey. There can be a few thiings going on. One, maybe you were exposed to one of the many illnesses going around so badly right now everywhere. Second, it may be that something you ate or drank just did not set well in your pouch, or maybe something was swallowed a little too solid and will take longer to pass through, or third, if this continues and especially worsenes... it can happen sometimes that as we heal internally where the pouch and intestines were joined, our bodies work too hard to heal, produce too much scar tissue and narrow the area where these were joined (stricture). Usually if you are going to get one it will start between 3 to 6 weeks out, maybe a tad sooner, maybe a few weeks later, but generally 3 to  6 weeks. So, if this does not get better, and if it does get worse or continue call your doc, can be whats going on. Please tho, don't assume that it is whats happening yet. If it is, it is a very simple outpatient procedure and its all fixed up. . If you still feel this way tomorrow, or worse, call your doc, especially if you begin to vomit.
Oh yeah... or it could be just a yucky feeling day. I am NOT a doc, just sharing my knowledge on things that can cause this and sharing those things. I can be totally off too.
Stay hydrated the best you can and get better!
