Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  I Am Still Sick...  Okay, I have been very sick now for about a month. I am nauseous, dizzy, light-headed, NO APPETITE, I have diarrea. The doctor put me on flagyl and questran which does not seem to be helping. I think something is wrong and they need to look inside me. I am scared I am going to lose my job and I am unable to function as a mother. I am starting to regret this surgery. I have never been this sick before, what could be wrong??

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  I don't have an answer for you. So your Dr. doesn't think there is anything going on? I think I would have to "demand" having some tests ran or something. This just isn't something you push under the rug and hope it gets better. Prayers going up for you!!! |

| Super Moderator  | Which dr put you on flagyl, your surgeon? You should ask for a scope, though. (((((HUGS)))))

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I would call my surgeon and ask them to look further. Being sick for a month is not anything to play with. Roz

 | I was put on Flagyl when I developed C-DIFF and diarreah was a symptom. I also went through a period where I was very dizzy an lightheaded and my dr took me off my blood pressure meds. I am now running higher than I had but not too high to go back on. He tells me it will go down with more weight loss. How long have you been on the Flagyl? I took almost the entire 10 day course before I noticed the diarreah stopping.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | My advice call your surgeon up and tell him what you just told us....including the work and mothering part. He should sit up and pay attention. |
