Re: eating

La-Te-DaMember

Ever since I had pouchitis a few weeks ago I get nauseous after I eat. I am still not eating a whole lot because I just haven't been feeling well but I was wondering if other have this issue and what they do to cope and feel better? My takedown was five years ago and I am just now having these issues. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I drink around eight liters of water a day so I am staying hydrated. I have a protein shake for breakfast and do ok with that. It's just the solid food I am struggling with.

What were you treated with, and how long ago did you finish that up? Medications are a very common cause of nausea, and it might not clear up right away.

Are your BM comparable to how it was before pouchitis? If they are more irregular and you're also feeling stuffed after eating solid food (besides nausea), that may be a symptom of a partial blockage. If it does not get better, I would have your GI doc do an ultrasonic scan, that's not a big deal.

Could 8 liters of water be too much? The advice I read is about 3 liters for women and about 4 for men. I realize we (with j-pouches) may need more, but I would think that twice as much may be too much. Of course, if you are following your doctor's advice, then never mind.
