Zofran works so much better than Phenergan. It is sublinguial, meaning you don't have to swallow a pill, it dissolves on your tongue, so it works so much quicker. It was first for patients who were nauseous from chemo, so that tells you how good it works. It was a live saver for me after my sleeve. The only problem I had was nausea. Not really much pain, just nausea.

Diva Dee i understand completely what your going through. im so happy your doctor gave you zofran. that stuff is amazing, i still take it when i eat something that doesn't completely agree with my tummy and in 15 minutes i feel wonderful. also take gas-x for your bloating, it will help so much. Good luck DivaDee!

It does get better but believe us all it will take time. It's frustrating at first but u will get to know your new stomach.

I have Zofran too and I love it. Mine are the regular tablets that you take with a sip of Water (they're tiny), not the sublingual ones.

awww sweetie *hugs* I'm so sorry you're having a hard time with this! I was going to tell you that Dr. Campos told me to take Dramamine and that helped me out a lot when I was sick. It's really hard at first but I promise it gets easier and you'll make it. Just keep plugging away, one foot in front of the other and one day at a time. Before you know it you'll be so much better and all this will just be a memory. Time really does fly for some reason after the surgery, you'll see!

xoxo's, Renee`

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
