Uggh. Nausea back tonight.



Recommended Posts

Nausea has returned. Uggh. Took my anti nausea pill but sheesh. Its been over a week since I last felt this way. Maybe I need to go slower with my diet progression.

I feel your pain :( I struggled with nausea off and on for the first 4-6 weeks after my revision. It did get better though. I just had to ride it out. I don't know what you have for nausea meds, but I had zofran which was like a sugar pill. It never helped my nausea. Phenergan was much better for me, but after my prescription ran out, I switched to Dramamine over the counter and it worked just as well. Still use it from time to time if I get queasy for no reason! Hope you feel better soon!!

Aww thanks. I do have all three and find phenergan works the best too. Didn't work last night. Still feel yucky this morning. I even got up at 4am and took a reglan which didn't do anything. The baby tummy is colicky I guess.

Aaw sorry about the nausea, that sucks.

Be careful if you're taking Vitamins and try not take them to close together. I have found that causes my little tummy to be sore and temperamental.

Take care

Reglan is made of sugar. I'm convinced!! ;) lol Hope you feel better soon. I know the nausea is awful and so frustrating, but give it time. I promise it does eventually go away!!!

My body is just out of wack. I can take 1 oz of cream of wheat and 2 oz of Water this morning ok. It sounds like a party in my belly. Everything is waking up.

Uggh. Nausea is back again. My intake is so poor. Focusing on liquids first. I'm still pretty swollen at least my upper abdomen looks like it.

How long did the nausea stage last?? What did you find that helped it not be so bad? Just getting mentally prepared ... How are you feeling now a few more weeks out?

Honestly I still have it to some degree though I've only vomitted 3 times. I'm 4 weeks plus post op. Have reglan, phenergan, and prilosec. Really depends on what I eat. Still on pureed stage another 2 weeks. More acidic foods or spicy foods kill me as does coffee and shakes.< /p>

Yeah, hate to tell you, but I'm almost 3 months out and I still get it sometimes. Never thrown up, but get insane nausea still sometimes. Mostly when I try and drink a Protein Shake or eat a Protein Bar. Ugh. That's probably my biggest issue, getting in enough Protein, because I haven't really been able to supplement at all post-op! But as long as I avoid those, and eat slowly, with small well chewed bites, I'm good! :)

I feel your pain. I was just released from the hospital after two long weeks. I was nauseas from day one after my surgery. I'm almost seven weeks post op. But the nausea kicked my butt. So badly I had severe dehydration. Now I'm home with pic line and a TPN fluids for two weeks. I had never imagined this to have happen to me. While I was in the hospital I had two endonoscopy's and both times they stretched my new tummy because there was some narrowing. On top of IV nutrients I'm getting. I have the nausea patch I take zofran every 6 hours and phenagran as needed. Its been a nightmare for me. I fall under that one percent of patients that have chronic nausea :( Please be careful and try your best to keep that nausea under control so that you can keep your fluids in and not get yourself dehydrated and end up in the ER. Hang in there and keep us posted.

Me too. Doc says first focus on Fluid intake. That's a problem too. Just so full with just a mouthful.

Hi I'm glad your home! So they decided to not go ahead with the bypass? The doctors were talking about that if I'm not mistaken?

No I didn't go through with it. I asked for a second opinion and the new surgeon wants to try different methods to see if the nausea will subside. She gave me new hope . Because honestly I'm terrified of the gastric bypass. I actually know of one other person here on this sight who had the same thing as me and she too was going to have the gastric bypass but her nausea went away after her TPN at home treatments. So I'm hopeful that I will to recover from this. I have to stay positive and determine. And give it my ALL because Lord knows I don't want another surgery again. :(

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
