Hello, I am 10 years out from Gastric Bypass surgery and am experiencing severe nausea after eating. This has been going on for 3-4 months. I have been very successful with my weight loss but now I’m down another 30-40 pounds because I don’t want to eat. I have an appetite but as soon as I eat, I start experiencing nausea. This is to the degree I have to lay down for about 30-45 minutes until it passes. Is this common this far out from surgery?
