Jessica9190 127 Posted February 7, 2013 I will be two weeks post op tomorrow and I'm nauseated a lot. Everything has gone really well for me. Totally by the book with no real problems. I am just tired and nauseated constantly. It's especially worse while and after a Protein Drink. They told me to drink slowly so I've been taking over an hour to get in one Protein drink. Even after just the first few sips I feel the need to vomit (I never do.). Then when I finish the drink I stay nauseated for 45 min to an hour. If I did the ounce every 15 min rule it would take me 3-4 hours to finish it. I can imagine trying to stomach it for 3-4 hours. Already I'm nauseated all through out the day. Anyone else feel like this? I hate to whine but I'm so tired of feeling sick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jessica9190 127 Posted February 7, 2013 Ok I go back to work Monday and other than the nausea I feel ok to go back. I'm just worried about being sick all day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
music1618 879 Posted February 7, 2013 I stayed nauseated for about 2-3 months. Then one day I woke up and my body said ok we are done with that. I tried zofran and it did not work. My doc gave me the scapolimean patch and phenergan and I took the phenergan about 30 min before I ate and it was a little better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nausea med Just now got to eat chicken salad nausea gone Hope y'all feel better Godspeed Im going to be a month out on the16th. I'm overwhelmed and I'm having buyers remorse. I new it was going to be tough but emotionally I don't think I was ready. I keep burping and with every burp I feel nauseated. I was fine up until two days ago. I want to cry so bad! This might sound like a dumb question but is this reversible? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe it is reversible technically but very complicated and rarely done. From what I understand you will not ever be EXACTLY the way you were before. I am suffering from the same stuff. I thought I was prepared but nothing prepares you for this. It's very tough. I will pray for you tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mommytonya 77 Posted February 8, 2013 I have been sick 24/7 since i got the surgery. I am two months out. I have had 3 ct scans and two endoscopys with dialation and am going on my third tomorrow and will continue to get thwm every week and half until im able to eat. It sucks when ur miserable and in the bathroom dry heavinf or throwing up every hour or so i feel ur pain ladies. It is slightly relieving to know im npt the only one sick and i have yet to meet someone or talk or chat with someone who regrets the surgeru later on which means this wont last forever. My surgoen said he has very few patients who dont say they regret this thw first few months. Lets all try to think positive i know ita hard im righr there wirh ya! 1 vachick64 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vachick64 32 Posted February 8, 2013 I spent 9 1/2 months nauseated and vomiting when I was pregnant, so this can not be any worse than that! Of course my surgery isn't until March 5...so I will have to get back to you about regrets. Good luck everyone, I pray you will feel better and be able on eat soon!

btb2013 84 Posted February 8, 2013 Im going to be a month out on the16th. I'm overwhelmed and I'm having buyers remorse. I new it was going to be tough but emotionally I don't think I was ready. I keep burping and with every burp I feel nauseated. I was fine up until two days ago. I want to cry so bad! This might sound like a dumb question but is this reversible? Burping from extra air or gas seems to some of the patients posting. Did u ask dr about what anti gas and nausea med you can take? Over the counter? I have drops and under tongue meds ready to go..... It only lasts until your body adjusts.... Has anything changed in your eating practices in the last two days from prior? Good luck and God bless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
