I'm still experiencing this over 6 months down the line ........... lol.
I found that once I had been sick on something then I couldnt really eat anything for at least a day, sometimes 2. Once not long after the op I had to go 6 days without any food being able to stay down.
Just keep those liquids going in a bit at a time.

Hi Vixiebell did you have an open or keyhole bypass You are only a week post op and I had to have liquid for 4 weeks

I have been ok today till tea I had my porridge then tried some scrambled egg for lunch which was hard work. For tea I had salmon and was sick twice think I might have eaten it to quick

I am nearly 15 weeks post op and can eat most things now, however, tonight I was having some grilled trout and suddenly had the urge to throw up....I have had a dicky tum for a few days but thought I had got past that. I had not even put my fork down and I was heaving...think I either have a bug or my tum is starting to reject foods I was fine with...lets hope its a bug lol..xx

Just so you all know there is a stomach virus running around, two of my husband's workers have been down with it this past week. And last week when I went for my accupuncture treatment my doctor said the waiting room was full of people with it.

well i stopped feeling sick now yaaay but i think i'll stick to fluids today. i know im only 1 wek past op but i think all surgeons are different they got me on purees the day i left hospital which was 3 days after op lol. Also i had keyhole surgery and my scars are all healed up now too yay i had to take the dressings off the other day with my gp's permission as i was starting to have an allergic reaction to them ick! It's like i've also noticed many of you only have to have the blood thinning jabs for 5 days after surgery i was sent home with 14 of them :O lol.
anyway hope you all have great days today

I was on fluids for two weeks, puree for two weeks and soft foods for two weeks. I stuck to it rigidly and luckily haven't had any problems whatsoever but I guess we are all different. Hope you feel better soon xx

 

[vixiebell]

Aww thankyou i have noticed thats the case with alot of people that they are on fluids when they get home and i double checked my dietry sheet but it does say to go straight on to purees so i'll do as im told lol. the only thing that worries me is that im not to start taking my vitamins again til next tuesday which seems a long period to go without any extra support if you know what i mean.

Hi Vixie. sorry to read about your pain, horrible isn't it.
I've just been through this as well, I'm not sure when you read my post but I have updated it and you may find it interesting.

But your right to stay on liquids, I had to for 4 weeks post op, so I don't know why your eating porridge and such like already, your innards haven't started to heal yet, so if I were you I'd stop eating heavy foods completely for at least three more weeks.

Keep us informed how your getting on.:yuk:

 

[shelbell]

Vixie it's ok, you were under Shaw Somers weren't you? He does purees straight away so just stick to your consultants advice

What I think might have happened is that you've swallowed the fish pie puree too quickly (very easily done, remember, bites the size of the rubber on the end of a pencil and chew) and it's caused some trapped wind in your pouch. This causes an intense stabbing pain which is relieved by being sick. Being sick will then have irritated your pouch probably causing a bit of swelling which is causing the continued discomfort now. It should get easier quite quickly but a day of liquids will help. Keep the fluids up.

I was sent home with a months supply Was so happy when that month was up lol

i only had 5 days of the injections and i also went onto pureed after a few days, its whatever the surgeon advises but everyones difeerent, just eat alowly and chew and if anything doesn't feel right, i'd go back to liquids for a couple of days and try again x x x
