Maybe there is something else that can help that, you might try calling your NUT. I think that you may also find that you can use pepto or . I don't know but ask the NUT what the equivelant is for wls patients. Also I have had ideas myself for improving digestion post op but still unsure about them for now and pre op.

You are six weeks out and should be starting to feel noticably better. I think you need to be checked out again, seriously.

Have you tried eliminating dairy? I was extremely nauseas and hospitalized for a week 3 wks post op. Even the IV meds didn't work...took dairy out of my diet and was better within 24 hrs. I tried sour cream today, just a little, and have been nauseas most of the day. It sux something fierce but I feel a lot better. Hope you feel better!

Push your dr to prescribe you diferent anti-nausea medications until you find the one that works for you, if nothing works ask for a upper GI to see if everything it's functioning right with your new stomach. BUG you doctor until you find relieve!

Zofran, favorite anti nausea medicine... have they tried this one? Also there is a patch you can put behind your ear instead of having to swallow. This far out you should, like the other posters have suggested, should be feeling better not worse. Careful with dehydration if you are nauseated and not drinking enough. Push your doc for a solution/investigation of your symptoms. Best of luck, a yucky stomach sucks! Sorry

Are you taking any B Vitamins? If your thiamine is low which most WLS patients are post op, then you will be nauseas. They gave me an injection of it, but you can buy it OTC too. If I remember correctly its B-1. Just trying to think of other things that might help. Praying for ya!

      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.
