Nauseas. Grumbly. Normal? Advice?



Recommended Posts

6 days out. Felt lots better most of day 5. End of day five and into today, I am very nauseated. Having trouble getting hydrated because of the pain while drinking. The grumble belly is happening a bit lower than usual, so I'm going to the bathroom ie; don't trust a fart.

I'm worried because I can't seem to make it to away. I feel heavily medicated, in that I'm weak and dizzy (maybe because of the liquid pecocet, but I haven't taken a dose since 930 last night) and I can't move too fast or I feel like I'm gonna vomit and pass out. Any advice? I really appreciate you all.

The weakness and dizziness is a possible sign of dehydration. Sip really slowly and repeat, don't gulp don't use a straw. Go one ounce at a time, but stick with it because you still are going to have to stay hydrated. Check with your Dr. I had two scripts for nausea coming out of the hospital, but never used them. They may give you something. But #1 is to get the fluids in.

Are you sure you need the pain meds? I'd try to wean from it and then maybe things will calm down a bit. Percocet can cause a lot of different effects..

Yeah I'm definately weaning. Just going to do Tylenol if I have pain. I know that the roxicet can cause some nausea.

And I'm sipping like its my job. Hell bent on getting that 64 in. I think it'll help. Thanks guys.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
