Ok, I'm now11 days post op. everything is fine EXCEPT I wake up with terrible nausea that lasts for hours. Sometimes Protein helps, but it doesn't go away until afternoon. Not sure why, but feels like pregnancy all over again! I've already lived that 4 times, don't need to do that again! Is anyone else still battling nausea? Seems like the best cure is sleep, but I'm back at work and - ain't nobody got time for that! Lol. Anybody got any ideas? My surgeon just ki da nodded his sexy head and said its normal, but doesn't sound too normal since I can't find anyone experiencing the same thing! Help!

No! I wasn't told to. I'll try that. How long did your doctor say to do that?

Which ones did your doctor put you on? I had them for 8 days, but I think I need them longer. I can't get what he gave me here. I had my surgery out of the country.

He said just over the counter prilosec or prevacid

One week post op today and I've been doing great. Today I have the headache from hell. I rarely get headaches and this is kicking my butt. I'm still on Clear Liquids. Anyone else having headaches?

I'm so glad to hear everyone is doing so well!! I've been drinking 2 oz of blue Powerade every hour since 8:30. It's all I can do to get that down! I have a spirometer that I have to use 10 times an hour. And I've walked three times today. The pain is a little worse now than before b/c I'm off Morphine and on Loritab. I don't like the way the Loritab feels on my "old" stomach. I'l get through! I have to remember why I'm doing it.
