5 Weeks Post Op and still nauseated



Recommended Posts

It's been 5 weeks and I am still dealing with nausea. I'm not sure why. Not sure if it's because I'm still healing or if it's something I'm doing or not doing rights.. Has this happened to anyone else?

eating too fast or too much can cause this to happen...but it wouldnt hurt to ring your doctor and let them know and have them advise you ...hang in there

I'm nauseated without eating so I don't think that's it.. Like now it's 6am and I haven't eaten anything yet and I already feel a little nauseated. I haven't even had my first fill yet????????

Are you getting enough fluids to keep yourself properly hydrated?

When newly banded, I did not realize that nausea can be a symptom of dehydration.

You should not ignore feeling this way. Start sipping Water to see if that helps, but in the meantime your surgeon should be contacted to be informed of how you are feeling.

When I was about 4 weeks post op and attended my scheduled appointment with my surgeon, and complained about nausea, he sent me directly to the ER to get IV hydration. I'm not saying this is your problem, but my experiences.

I hope you feel better fast...

I agree with CG and Sojo. Give your doctor a call and let them know how your feeling. You could be dehydrated, and/or you could have a bit of a tummy virus. Either way it's a good idea to let the doctor know how your feeling so you can get some relief.

Hope your feeling better soon!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
