Any Suggestion For Unable To Eat/drink Anything After Gastric Bypass?
My mother had gastric bypass 6 years ago. She can not eat or drink anything and keep it down. She has been doing this for 3 months and has lost 30+ pounds. She was in the hospital less than 2 weeks ago for 2 Days. She has no strength, she's having convolutions like things. We've been to many doctors and no one can seem to help. Can you just try to help me figure this out? Q

Hi.
This looks to me as a sequel of gastric bypass , wherein she may need a revision surgery.
Of course this will be decided after an endoscopy and contrast studies of the bowel with X-ray or Ct scan.
