I had my sleeve done on Jan. 13, 2011. I have been nauseated from day 1 after surgery. I am on Nexium, Tecta, Stemetil & Motilium, and still nauseated, but my surgeon now thinks my gallbladder needs to come out to fix the nausea.

WOW, it is interesting to see others have the same problem! Sorry... I had my sleeve January 12, 2011... and I have extreme nausea. I describe it as no rhyme or reason, it can occurr before I eat or 3 hours after I eat. There is no connection to the foods that I have ate to when I get nausea attack. I use the word "attack" because it is jus that... I can feel it come on and I run to the bathroom, stomach hurts, I feel like I need to vomit but never have... I am rocking, the room isnt moving it is me rocking motion like I am on a boat. The attacks last anywhere from 15 minutes to 45 minutes...sometimes I even get stomach pains... I notice I burp alot during the attacks... then they pass and I am as good as new.. Very frustrating. I have had this since I was on clear liquid stage an the doc said it would get better. The attacks do not happen as frequently however, 2 months post op and I do still have 1-2 a week. The doc prescribed a medicine to help my body move the food through my stomach... told me to give it a try see if works. I notice no change so I quit taking it.

Hopefully in time it will leave me!

I was very nauseous the first week and my dr gave me meds to take. He prescribed 2 types and it was up to me to choose which one worked for me. One was a tablet that dissolved on my tongue and the other was a suppository (spelling?) but the oral worked for me. Agree with the others keep drinking your fluids and forget about the rest for now. Hope your feeling better soon!

Thanks everyone for your help ....i think the nausea is getting 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?

        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.
