    Default 5 weeks out

    Hello

    I had my surgery 0ct 22, 2015, and I am still in the puree stage due to constant vomiting. Has anyone gone through this? What causes it? My dr says that at three months if I a still vomiting he will do an endoscopy. Has anyone had this procedure? what was the diagnosis?

    I had an upper GI endoscopy two weeks before getting sleeved to check for any anatomical abnormalities beforehand. A hiatal hernia was found, and that issue got repaired by my surgeon on the same day and time that he sleeved me.

    Luckily, I have not had any issues with nausea or vomiting before or after the surgery. I hope your issues can be resolved soon. Good luck to you.
