Have you had gastric bypass surgery and been sick since? When I was gathering information on the surgery, I reviewed all of the information that I could find. I looked at the potential problems and weighed them (pardon the pun) with the amount of weightloss that I needed to have and I made the personal decision to have the surgery. It has been over a year since I had the surgery and I have had the usual problems, but there is one that I never saw mentioned before so I am looking for information. I am sick ALL of the time. I have several children who bring home illnesses like homework, and I have never been one to pick up anything. Now I get ill at the blink of an eye. I get sinus infections, ear infections, headaches, the flu, colds, etc. Although I went from a size 24/26 to a size 8/10, I am almost to a point of wanting to reverse the surgery to get well. I have talked to others, and they have had similar experiences. It would have been nice to know that I would be sickly after the surgery. I knew the first year would be hard, but I am farther than that. Does anyone have any knowledge of what to do?
