nausea?

[devonmae 56]

I've heard from a bariatric post op nurse that nausea is one of the worst side effects of the sleeve. She said for even months after surgery. How was everyone's nausea and what did you do for it?

I was nauseas the first day after surgery. I am now 6 weeks post op and have not had any since.

I am a month out and was fine until this last week. Sometimes after I eat, I feel sick and just want to lay down. This only happens when I try something new though.

I had it right after surgery, & only mildly the next week. I've been fine since.

I never had nausea -- not even when I was in the hospital. I am 19 months out, and my sleeve has never caused me to throw up or feel nauseous. If I eat too much, it feels stuck/painful in my chest. Walking helps with this.

I had nausea right after surgery. They put a patch behind my ear and gave me something in my IV I have been fine ever since although I still have the patch on.

I was thinking of getting one of those motion sickness bracelets just in case for after surgery.

I am six weeks postop and having nausea and some vomitting in the evenings. I think it's a combination of trying new things and drinking too close to eating. Hope it goes away soon.

I had nausea around weeks 6-8. It was almost like vertigo, mostly with movement. I also had a post op infection then though, so its unclear what caused the queasiness. I wore a scopolamine patch until it went away.

It the grand scheme of things, it was an inconvenience more than a big issue. The last poster was right too, sometimes when I try a new food or texture, I feel funky too.

Frankly it's the heartburn I complain about most. I'll be at three months on Sunday and haven't had any nausea lately.

I did ask my doc about a ppi after surgery and he mentioned that this surgery does nothing to help reflux. I think my reflux not is weight related so i am hoping once I start losing weight out will go away. I don't have it all the time just sometimes when i am at work in the middle of the night and i don't take anything for it.

I had nausea in the hospital due to the pain meds... And the swallow tests. I refused to use the pain pump because I couldn't take the nausea.

I'm on a Powerade and saltine diet......nausea since late night of March 8th. It just won't go away. No desire to eat or drink.
