Sassy I would definitely call your surgeon's office and tell them what's going on. They should be able to advise. Best to you for a speedy recovery!

They make an anti-nausea suppository. If you are really suffering, or worried about dehydration. It is worth it. You might want to ask your surgeon's office when you call. Don't wait until you are dehydrated.

Yes, please call your doc ASAP! The more nauseous you feel, the more dehydrated you will get, which will then increase your nausea. Call your doctor, and feel better soon!!!!

Maybe your doctor could get you a

Scopolamine patch (Brand name: Transderm Scop)

this is a patch that is used for motion sickness. I had my procedure on Monday and woke up with nausea. They placed the patch on me and it resolved my nausea. It will last 7 - 10 days wich should be perfect.

Easy to apply - just make sure you wash your hands REALLY good after touching these.

Good Luck.

Using a scopolamine patch as previously stated is a great idea, and I also had Zofran that was orally disintegrating. This way you don't have to try to take in any Fluid to swallow the pill. Most importantly, as everyone has said, call your doc. Not only can they get you something better to control your nausea, they can also assess to make sure you aren't having any kind of complication. Good luck. I had nausea for several days, and actually spent 4 nights in the hospital due to the N/V. I still have nausea in the mornings, but my Pepcid takes care of that. I'm 15 days post-op.

i agree with the others. The patch has really helped me. I haven't had severe nausea, but it's helps with that little twinge. Please call your doctor so you don't get dehydrated. My doctor prescribed Phenagren (sp) and I keep it in my frig as an emergency back. Feel better!

      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?

      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.
