stephgfl 13 Posted January 19, 2013 I got banded Thurs. I was nauseous & in pain thurs & fri. The pain has subsided but the nausea has become much worse and has progressed to dry heaving/retching, I've taken in small sips of Clear Liquids only. This am dr prescribed phenergan suppositories but they didn't help. Now I've just been admitted to the hospital and am hoping this is just a small bump in the road. But so far for me the banded journey has been horrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hummingbird7 18 Posted January 19, 2013 Oh no! I'm so sorry you're going through this. That was my biggest fear that I would be nauseaus following the surgery. I got lucky. I really hope this is something the docs can take care of soon and that the rest of your recovery goes smoothly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

laurigee 545 Posted January 19, 2013 So sorry to hear this. Let us know what they find. Where you taking pain meds? They cause extreme nausea for me. I hope that is your problem also. Don't give up, things will get better! You'll be in my thoughts and prayers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bar2373 138 Posted January 19, 2013 I had mine on Thursday too, so sorry to hear you are having a hard time. They gave me zophran (sp?) and I did not have any nausea. Hope you feel better soon. ~hugs~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stephgfl 13 Posted January 20, 2013 For pain I was prescribed Tylenol 3 I took 2 doses because the pain went away quickly. But the nausea keeps getting worse. So far the only thing the dr has said is "this happens to some people" they're doing bloodwork, and starting iv fluids and nausea meds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

klr2012 13 Posted January 20, 2013 I was also sent home with a little anti nausea patch that was placed behind my ear to help with nausea. It is supposed to last for 3 days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doxiegirl 3 Posted January 20, 2013 I was banded Dec 28,2012 and was in the ER the next morning at 2am. Nausea,pain and dehydration. They gave me fluids,dilauded and zofran. It didn't really help,it just had to run it's course for a few days. You'll be fine,just give it time. Hang in there,it's worth it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
