I'm 9 weeks out and I still have nausea throughout the day. It's before I eat, after I eat, while drinking Protein, sometimes after I drink Water. What I do to fight it is chew gum or brush my teeth. I hope that someday soon my nausea will just disappear. Good luck to you.

Call your doc for anti nausea meds. Chewing gum puts air in your stomach which can cause gas pain..my nurse said no gum chewing.

Headache for me was caused by too few calories post surgery. I've heard a lot of people say alcohol pads under your nose helps with nausea. For me, I usually grab a SF Popsicle and it helps me,

A headache can also be a sign of dehydration. Push fluids.

I'm day 3 post op and I have been really good on getting my fluids in. I did make the mistake of missing a pain med and I was in pretty bad pain for an hour or so. Won't do that again. I had a headache, but then started drinking more and it went away.

I am on day 5. No nausea but headache was an issue up until today. I think the extra fluids really helped. Look forward to hearing about your progress. I am new to this group.

Sounds like you might be dehydrated.

My NUT said to chew gum or eat breath mints for offensive Protein breath. I have chewed gum all the time since I was several weeks out. No gas pains. In fact, I rarely have gas at all. I have 3 kinds of nausea meds, but hate taking meds. It has to be really bad for me to take a pill. Nausea is bearable as long as nothing comes up. I kinda think the nausea tells me it's time to eat or that I've eaten too much. I live with it. It's part of me now. No headaches at all. I guess I'm lucky.

      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.
