Need help-yesterday was drinking fine, today can barely sip!



Recommended Posts

I'm just miserable today....nauseated and can barely sip. I've felt like I could throw up at any minute all day long. I'm 8 days post op and was doing fine just yesterday!

I was able to sip on Protein Drinks, sip creamed Soup, and eat a few bites of pudding. I have felt so sick since I woke up this morning.

I already had to have IV fluids early on, so do not want to get dehydrated. I'm sucking on crushed ice at the moment since sipping is so difficult. :(

I was sleeved may 7 and still experiencing extreme nausea, diarrhea and sometimes vomiting. I'm on the puréed foods and I'm certainly hoping it gets better. I basically can't leave the house! I feel urgh!

I'm actually back to feeling good today. I have NO IDEA why I felt so horrible yesterday. I was totally miserable the entire day....vey nauseated, had the chills, dizzy and felt so faint. I could hardly walk to the bathroom. My husband checked my blood pressure, pulse, and temp all throughout the day and night, and was pushing me to sip every 15 minutes. I know he was very concerned (he's a paramedic, so doesn't easily worry since he's seen and done it all). He was on the phone with my doc a couple of times, so am thankful that his knowledge kept me from a trip to the ER.

Today is a new day! I've went to get my nails done this morning and we are doing to going to go to movies tonight if I'm still feeling good.

What a difference a day makes!

You will have good days and bad days like that. I don't know why. I was sleeved April 15th. Six weeks out and I go three-4 days and then have 1-2 really bad days for no reason at all. It must be our bodies still healing.

Be careful! Don't be afraid to call your doctor either. I'm glad you are feeling better! I was told by my NUT that one day I will tolerate it and the next day my body will say no more. If you can't tolerate anything aim for liquid to stay hydrated . ... maybe try warm herbal tea?

      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.
