    Default Stomach Twisted after Sever Vomiting? 100 days post op.

    I had severe vomiting and diarrhea last night due to what I think was probably food poisoning (shrimp). During one of the vomiting episodes my stomach wrenched up. I could feel my stomach flop and it felt like it collapsed in my body. There was slight pain for about 10 seconds then it seemed to return to normal.

    That was 24 hours ago and I've been burping ever since. I can barely eat any food at all....kind of like the beginning of my sleeve. One quarter cup of soup and I'm done.

    I read about stomach's twisting and I am worried a bit. Has anyone experienced this weird sensation of the stomach when vomiting?

    I hope you're able to get in and see a doctor soon. Keep us posted. I haven't heard about twisting happening in response to a vomiting episode, I've only heard that some people the twisting seems to happen just as a response to the physical staple line. Hope you're ok.

    That sounds so dreadful. Please, its better to be safe and call your doctor or go to the ER if the vomiting starts up. I hope you feel better. .

    Well, it took about four days, but my stomach returned to normal. I think it was twisted or something. It was like the first few days after surgery; I could hardly keep anything down. But now I am back to normal.
