    Yep that's where I'm at right now. I hate feeling nauseous and vomiting. Prior to the surgery I was never sick. I'm a RN in the ER, I take care of the sick am injured. I'm not one of them. This role reversal bites. I c my dr on Wednesday so I will be addressing this issue once more. One thing I know is that I can't work like this and I need it fixed so I can get back to work. LOL. Thank u for sharing. I should have remembered Reglan, we use it a lot in the ER. Thank u again. I will keep u all posted. On the up side, I've lost 41lb in 6 weeks. LOL

    Honey I've tried Zofran, Phenegran, and am now wearing a Scopolamine patch. Still battling nausea. Dr said it should cease after he stretched the stricture, that was this past Tuesday. Was ok the rest of that dy and Wednesday but Thursday it started up again. I have not yet tried Reglan but I'm willing to try anything. Heck I've had the ginger gum and the Sea bands too. What use to work (coke or ginger ale) I can't have anymore.

    Correct n/v means nausea/vomiting. Sorry. I abbreviate at times. Down side of being a RN in the ED (emergency department).

    Thank u bunches. I would love to know why I'm staying nauseous. I see him Wednesday and hoping I feel better.
  5. Hi! My name is Dawn and I'm 42yo. I had gastric bypass in 6/25/2013. First 2 weeks was tolerable but on the day of 3weeks post op I ended up in the hospital for 6 days due to a pleural effusion which I then had to have a chest tube for 5 days. Since then I stay N/V. My dr did an EGD this past Tuesday where he had to dilate the stricter. He said that is what was causing me N/V. But it's Friday and am nauseous as ever. I've lost like 38-41 lb. but everything makes me ill, even the smell of food. Is this normal? How do I get over this? I have even considered reversal if that were an option. I'm not use to being down/ill. I'm always taking care of others. Please someone help me out here. Thank u in advance.
