nausea - yes... I had bouts of nausea up until my 6 week post op... Just unexplainable when it would hit, sometimes after I ate, sometimes 2 hours after I ate, morning or night.. I could go 4 days without an attack, then have 2 in the same day... it was just so odd. I explained it as the room wasnt rocking like a boat, I was rocking like a boat... I felt so terribly sick I would have to lay on the bathroom floor because I did not know which way I would be sick..and I never did actually vomit or have diarha.... would get the sweats, could not get air... and as the attack would ease up I would get freezing cold... .. My doc gave me anti-nausea pills too, I didnt notice any difference. The only thing I did find relief with was GasX strips... they melt under your tongue, sometimes I would have to use 2, sometimes I needed to do a 3rd one.. No idea why these worked for me but they did... and I would release gas one way or another and the attack would ease up some... I got to where as soon as I felt one come on I quickly took a strip, so by the time it was in full swing I was disolving my 2nd one and getting ahead of it... it worked for me. Give it a try, you are not out much if it dont work for you..

I only have nausea every now and again, usually if I find myself eating too quickly. I too get will get hot sweats too if I eat to fast. I usually close my eyes and take really deep breaths. I've noticed however that it is easing up a bit each week. I'm sorry you are having a rough go at it. I hope it gets better!

I had nausea for a couple months after surgery. It was weird. It kind of came and went, off and on. Some days I would wake up with it several days a week. Then it would be gone but yet come back a couple of weeks later. It eventually went away for good.
