Surgery Yesterday And I Am Very Sick To My Stomach

[natbug2011 1]

I was banded Friday at about 4 and I haven't had anything to eat since Thursday at 10pm. I have this constant feeling that I am about to throw up. I want to eat so that I don't lose my strength but I just can't stomach it. Any suggestions to get rid of this feeling ... Help!!!!

Can the doc prescribe you some medicine for nausea?

It may not feel like it

right now but it will pass. Surprised your surgeon didn't prescribe some anti-nausea meds. Hang in there.

Ditto here for the anti-nausea meds? Doc gave me an Rx for these meds but I was fortunate and didn't need it. Call your Dr or his answering service. He made enough $ to make his Mercedes payment for 3 months so no worries.

Tried to call Dr left a message... Does anyone think bismuth subsalicylate would help

An old remedy my grandfather used to use was peppermint candy, just a thought since you can't get any meds right now. I haven't been banded yet but I do have some nausea meds already from having a stomach bug earlier this year. Hoping for a banding in June, we'll see. Hope you get some relief.

I felt absolutely miserable for the surgery day and the day after and a SLoW progression to better every day since. I am so surprised you did not get anti nauseous medicine! If there is a on call number I would call it! Day three is much better!

You shouldn't be eating at this stage, liquids only. Try some liquid gravol or something if you can't get in to your doctor; a pharmacist can probably recommend something as well.

I know that its liquids for two weeks but I am so sick I can't even think about eating

I felt better with camomile tea
