Your surgeon should have given you anti-nausea meds as it is important that you don't vomit at this time.

Feeling nauseous and having a sore throat are normal after a general, so, unless there are more symptoms that you haven't mentioned, you are probably feeling quite normal. - hope that makes you feel better!

Stay in close touch with your medical team but also be assured that you will feel better with each passing day.

I had a bad reaction too... My doc put a patch behind my war and ordered phenigran and zofran. I felt much better the next day and no problems since. Are you at home or in the hospital? Hope you feel better soon.

Definitely stay in communication with your surgeon's office. They should have given you a prescription for nausea, and an anti-emetic. It's very important for you to stay properly hydrated, otherwise the nausea could become a symptom for dehydration.

A sore throat following general anesthesia is normal, as you had a tube there during the surgery.

You will feel better with every day that passes...but don't risk becoming dehydrated. Let your surgeon know what is happening with you.

Best wishes to feel better fast...

      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.
