Short Term Risks Of Weight Loss Surgery.
(Go Back...) Although weight loss surgery
can help patients lose weight rather quickly, patients will experience some
short-term side effects. These side effects can range from nausea and vomiting,
abdominal pain and what is called the “dumping syndrome”. Nausea is reported in
almost all weight loss surgery patients. This is because during surgery, a
smaller stomach pouch is made and only very small amounts of food can be eaten.
When the wrong foods or too much, the result can be nausea. It may take patients
some time to learn how much food can be eaten at one time. It is important to
control this because vomiting can lead to problems with the stomach after
surgery. If the Lap-Band surgery is performed, excess vomiting can lead to the
band slipping out of place.
Another problem following weight loss surgery is what is called the dumping
syndrome. This can be caused when food is passed too quickly from the stomach to
the intestines. The result can be severe abdominal cramping, sweating, nausea
and diarrhea. In order to prevent this common problem following weight loss
surgery, patients are encouraged to eat not more than one or two ounces at a
time and to chew food thoroughly. Read more...
