Feeling Sick!

[Addi2009 1]

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I was banded Monday and feeling sick today. I don't know if it's the SF stuff or what! I've been drinking about 1.5 bottles of water/day and a couple of Popsicles and some broth in the evening. Oh, and I was able to get down some Greek yogurt today. Just wondering if feeling sick was normal 3 days after surgery? Thanks:)

I had a few waves of it i was banded the 12th of this month. Try just sitting or laying down for a few mins until it passes. Hope this helps a little!

Hope you feel better soon. This is my first post also. I am scheduled for Oct. 30th. Can't wait!!!

sounds like to me you might be dehydrated, up your Water intake, try sipping all day. Also I got extremely constipated from the anesthesia and pain meds and didn't go for 5 days and that made me nauseated, just a thought. Hope you feel better soon. It does get better!

Did your dr give you any chewable Zofran? If not, call and ask for some. It will really help! Also my anesthesiologist explained to my husband that the more fat one has on their body, the more the anesthesia is absorbed. So, it takes us chubby people longer for it to get out of our system....and could still be causing us to feel ill from it...even days later.

But up your Water too!

I also felt nauseous and I think it was from all the sweet stuff. I had some homemade veggie Soup and after that i felt much better, that at least tasted like food.< /p>

my 3rd day post op,i was sick and vomited all day....will never understand why,because for the 1st week after surgery i could barely drink, i was so full....

ice chips and gatorade helped the nausea a lot!!

See if you can get a rx for zofran. It was a life saver. Lol. But watch out, it will constipate you

I took the prescription anti nausea, the Gasx strips and this last time I wore the Sea Bands. The are just wrist bands that work, well

Sit on your wrist pressure points. Moving every hour for 5 mins will help too even though it doesn't seem it, good luck!
