i feel like i'm going to die!



Recommended Posts

I am 6 days post op and today was my official day back at work. as soon as i started i felt extremely nauseous. to the point that i had to run to the bathroom here and there. I never threw up, but kinda had like a dry heave i guess. Every time i hiccuped air comes up like a burp then never comes out and that;s when i feel the extreme nauseous feeling.

someone please help me! i called my doctor and he said to make sure im taking my nauseous pill and i did today. i cant continue like this.

Very Odd. Only time I've had an issue is after a fill when I was swollen. Ask your doctor if they gave you a fill at surgery that could be causing your problem.

You may be eating too quickly or not chewing well enough if you are feeling nauseous. I get nauseous whenever I do either thing.

Is it still happening? If it is, it might be gas? More often than not, if I feel nauseous it's because my stomach is full of air, if I can get some burps up or take a GasX or Tums it helps SO much and the Neasea goes away. I'm a little more than 1 week post op and I know for the first 3-4 days I was VERY gassy!! Went through a whole box of GasX, but it really helped! I hope you feel better soon!!

Could it be lingering affects of anesthesia? Also agree with OP, that even if you are on liquids, to slip slowly

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
