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

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
