Pain & Nausea 4 weeks out



Recommended Posts

I've been on soft foods last week, and until Friday did very well.....as of 4 days ago, everything I eat causes pain and nausea.....it starts at 5 a.m. with the Prilosec I take, and everything afterwards....the chewable Vitamin (bariatric fusion), cottage cheese, chicken, fish.....even just the teeniest bite or two...........water, diluted crystal light, and premier Protein drinks are going down fine....any thoughts on what's going on? Suggestions?

I sent the PA an email, but I received an automated reply that she's out until next week.....the same day of my appointment....so I'll call the office when it opens, but was wondering if you all had any experience with this. THANKS SO VERY MUCH!!!!!

So, here it is, and I don't like the answer. I was instructed to stop taking prilosec for 3 days, and go back to pureed foods.........Noooooooooooooo!!!!! %^#x^%$%@#$%# and #%$#(*&*&&^%^ to that! :D

The Prilosec can cause neasea and/or my tummy isn't ready for real food....crap.

I'll do as the good doctor tells me.....because not being able to eat stinks.....But no one says I have to be happy about it LOL

Glad you have an answer.....how are you feeling?

after not taking the prilosec today, the constant nausea is gone.....however, even on soft foods I'm still getting a bit nauseous....nothing like it was......one surgeon suggested I go on pureed foods for a while (they think my tummy isn't ready for real food)......my surgeon wants me to go back to full liquids......I thought the pureed suggestion was bad enough LOL This isn't something to mess around with, so I'll do what they say.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
