Severe Nausea After Eating



Recommended Posts

Just a question... I had the VSG 3 months ago and still, everytime I eat, I get nauseous within 1 min. Does this go away? I tried Motillium and still nothing.

find what works for you. I'm 4 months out and still using Phenergan suppositories twice a day while mostly eating Quest Proten bars and yogurt fruit smoothies Not much real food yet.

some of us take longer. It's hard to work through it Keep calling your dr.

You might be eating too fast. Do you get nauseous no matter what you eat or just certain things? My doctor gave me pills for that. It did go away after a few months but I would check with your doc about it.

Thank you for the response. I guess I shouldn't be too upset. I am 5 months from surgery and I am almost at my goal weight. My doctor was very agressive with getting me back to food very early in the process and I see that many people at my stage are just starting food. I had a sandwich 3-4 weeks after mine. Yes, just about everything I eat does this within seconds of the first bite but it does get easier when I eat one bite, wait for the nausea to susbside and then continue eating slowly. No medicine seems to work and I am realizing that it might be a year or more before this gets significantly better. I guess it is just one of those things.

What's the name of the pills he gave you?

I had gastric sleeve done July 26th...with a few complications...I was having difficulty keeping any clew liquids down and ended back up in the hospital for 12 more days...severely dehydrated and seriously low potassium levels as well.....still had a trouble keeping anything down and after every test under the sun, it was found that my pancreatic levels are high. I am at home now waiting it out. I am being told to just be patient and that it will get better. This has been hell. I am on steroids, anxiety med, and two other meds for nausea...and just trying to rest.

      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.
