Are you thinking that the VitaminD had something to do with you not feeling well? Does it feel stuck? Are you able to get in the fluids? If you are not getting in the fluids, you can get easily dehydrated especially if you are spitting up. Are you feeling lethargic? You might want to call the dr. to see what is going on. Hugs your way!!

You don't say when you had surgery, so it's hard to be specific.

Are you able to keep down fluids? If you aren't, then you need to contact your surgeon asap.

If it's just foods that are giving you problems, back up a bit and start with just one food a day. Small bits, chew very, very well. Pause between bites. That should help.

If your nausea continues but there is no structural problem (like a stricture), your physician can prescribe an anti-nausea medication that can help you.

Good luck.

I'm sorry you are feeling bad. Have you been getting your fluids in? If not you might be dehydrated and that will make you feel bad. Best to call your dr to check to see what you should do.
Good luck!
