Had Surgery June 25 Pain

I had my sleeve done this monday and I just stopped dry heaving today. Between the heaving and the gas I was really second guessing myself but I know there is no turning back. This site is wonderful

Oh, no! Feel better. Did they give you any nausea medicine? Are you using GasX? You poor thing. I'm sorry you've had such a tough time.

While in the hosptial I was given prilosec for gas and nausea. My surgeon prescribed omeprazole 20 mg the generic for prilosec and I take this twice daily. Contact your doctor and ask for a prescription for nausea and gas cause you will need daily.

How are you feeling now?

Sorry you feel sick. I can't believe they didnt give you something while in the hospital. They kept my IV loaded with anti-nausea meds, so i didn't feel sick at all.

I had surgery June 25th as well. I used Gas X strips while in hospital and now am using duel action acid controller complete. You can get it at Walmart or Target for about $10. Both things I mentioned have been approved by the bariatric nurse and surgeon, feel better soon.

I also had mine on Monday.. in alot of pain with you. Alot of Burping gas. (sorry tmi) trying to do the pain meds as often as i could. I haven't had alot of nausea but some. 'I was given prilosec to take but it is so hard to crush and down. Hope you feel better soon.

i find that prilosec capsules work best for me

Just curious, did you have a drain? I'm wondering if there is a connection to nausea and not having a drain to get blood out of your stomach.

I had no nausea and no drain.

[Looking Ahead 239]

I do have a drain and it will come out Monday with my first Post op Visit. It is constantly draining.

[Territravel 217]

I had a drain and no nausea. Also had an IV for 47 hrs, and they kept it pumped with meds. I keep reading about those who hurt so bad, and are so sick. I feel terrible for them! I believe in the power of prayer, worked for me.

Thank you all sooo much I am doing better now after some gas x strips and manually massaging the gas from my stomach.
