Vanessa, I know how hard the first couple of months are. It really seems terrible. I was nauseated and everything I ate felt like it was stuck. I threw up quite a bit. When I was nauseated I'd take an extra strength tums. If your surgeon allows that maybe it would help you. I hope you are getting your liquids in. That is the most important thing. I know this sucks right now, but it will get better. Take care and sip, sip, sip as much as you can. Take care, Kelli

Hi Vanessa, It's not always easy to do the right thing but you have. So sorry to hear you're having difficulties at 1 month out. Since it doesn't sound like you're getting a whole lot of help from your surgeon, it may not be a bad idea to see your PCP. He/she may be able to light a fire under your surgeon if nothing else and him/her to listen to you and give the specialized support you need. Don't give up ..... this surgery is a gift from God in spite of some of the problems that result ... He can also help get rid of them. Prayers are with you. {{{{HUGS}}}} Sandy
