Does everyone vomit post-op?

Jess just interested still in the pre op approval phase...do you want more kids? What was your deciding factor on sleeve vs band....leaning toward the sleeve but the safety flag in me saying take the band...

I'm done having kids. We have 2 boys (3 and 8 months) and that's enough for us. Both of my in laws had the bad with horrible results. Never lost the weight, constantly had food get stuck, always sick. My friend and uncle got the sleeve with awesome results.

Hey, I am 5 days post op and I havnt even had the first bit of nasua. Thank Goodness! I have done exactly like they told me too and have done very well. The only thing I have felt in my tummy is a bouncy feeling. Sometimes it feels like there are jumping Beans in there.

Just tell everyone: dr, nurses, anisthesia, ect. that you get sick easy and they will make sure they give you the meds to prevent it. I did, and they sent some home with me too.

Hope this eased your mind a little

Other than dry heaving a few times for the first 2 days post-op, I've no vomiting or nausea at all. No problems with any food, consistency, etc.

There are tons of options for painkillers. You have to be vocal about your experiences and needs. A good anesthesiologist will ask, but if not you need to TELL them. Take control! I'm sure you can handle that as the mother of 2 boys!!!

I'm getting close to 4 months out and I never threw up after surgery. The only time I came close was the day of surgery when I was recovering in my room and I got a shot for nausea VERY fast because I was being a diva. The next time was 5 weeks out when I ate 1/2 of a creme brulee and slimed so bad (the only time I have) that I thought I was going to lose it.

All of you are very lucky! i throw up a lot no matter how little i eat ( no medical issue just stomach sensitivity) but thankfully it is getting better... GOOOD luck to all of you <3
