Nausea when I lay down in bed.

[jcinabita 0]

After about an hour of sleeping, I get a feeling of nausea and have to get up. I can sleep fine sitting up in a chair, but that gets old. I do not eat at least 3 hrs before bed and then it has been only liquids.:tired I'm only 4 days out and so far I have had no problems from Clear Liquids to smoothies to applesauce. No pain. No other problems. If only I could sleep in bed:cry

jcinabita,

I had a few bouts of that as well. It goes away soon. I'm 9 days out and it was gone by about day 6.

Hi all, I'm on looking for answers; will keep searching but if anyone can pt me in the right area/chat I'd appreciate it. I never had reflux until several months (6+mo) & I got too much fill. So I had some removed. It helped for awhile. After several more months I have gone up/down with being filled. It would feel fine for a wk or 2, then it would get too tight & I couldn't sleep at night. Today I have nothing in the band; 0 cc's. I get reflux every night; I am up 1 or 2 tx's every night vomiting up the terrible acid in my stomach. I take Prilosec every day; sometimes 2 pills a day along with Pepcid AC, Pepto Bismol tablets when they stay down & drink ALka Seltzer like cold beer on a hot day! No relief. If I have even a sip of Water in the morning before 11am, I have nausea all morning. I cannot eat or drink anything until after 11 a.m. I can eat lunch but by late afternoon, the upset stomach is back & I usually have to "get rid of" my lunch. "Dinner" is very light & is usually "gone" after about 1 hr of sleep. I cannot drink very much at all during the day; even water causes indigestion. I cannot eat chicken, beef, lettuce, most veggies; sometimes cannot tolerate my Protein Drinks. I'm getting worried; yes, i'm losing weight, but at what cost?? Has anyone experienced any of this? I want to find out what I can do before going back to my dr & have him suggest to have the band removed; just don't want to give in to that idea yet. HELP!??!

Maybe you need to be checked for a hiatal hernia or gallbladder problems.

PLEASE STOP ALL THE DRUGS!!!!! Prilosec has problems...new ones found recently check up on it. The combination of everything your taking is causing more harm than helping. Make sure you are not overfilled. I suggest you go without a fill for a while...take it all out and heal. Drink aloe vera juice to heal...you can mix it with a gentle fruit juice. Alka seltzer is OUT completely...carbonation is notgood with a band. No TUms, etc. Maybe the occasional Pepto Bismol. Make sure you stop all eating 3 hours prior to going to bed and sleep on a bed with the head raised about a foot. drink water and herbal teas like mint tea or chamomile. Do not drink alcohol or coffee or regular tea. Good luck!
