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.

      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.
