Hi everyone. What a great place to come to share stories and get advice. I am one week 3 days post op. I have a question for everyone. I had nausea really bad the first few days. I mean, I couldn't even drink 15ml of liquid lortab that they were trying to give me for pain. I'd gag so hard and had the dry heaves. I know, TMI. But it was horrible. Now, I don't have the nausea as much, but as soon as I put anything in my mouth, which is liquids now, or pudding, etc., I get really nauseated. Has anyone experienced this? I called the nurse and should be getting a call back soon.

The only time I get sick is because I overeat and/or eat to fast. It's not pleasant, but not like if you have a virus....

Try to drink liquids at different temperatures. some people tolerate cold drinks and some do better with warmer drinks. early on i did better with room temp drinks

Thanks so much everyone for the suggestions. I just took a phenergan and I guess I will be knocked out soon, lol.
