I had my sleeve done Monday at 2pm. I can not tolerate any liquid because of that they have keep me another night. Not thrilled about that since I am self paying. Has anyone has this extreme nausea? What day does it stop ?

Oh I am SO sorry! I had post op nausea too :( it sucks.

I can't tell you when yours will stop, because everyone is different. If they think you should stay in the hospital, you should stay. Numero uno priority right now is for you to stay hydrated. Dehydration is serious business.

Tiny, TINY sips of Water are the way to go, and breathe. Just enough to wet your mouth. Tiny sips several minutes later, and breathe. Rest, and repeat. It WILL get easier over time. Also, they should have some anti-nausea medicine, and I've heard smelling an alcohol swab can help.

Mine lasted no longer than a week, and while at the time I was miserable --- it's a distant memory now.

Hope you feel better soon!!

I had severe post-op nausea too. I was dry heaving as I was waking up from the surgery and they kept having to give me nausea meds. I think it's a pretty common reaction to anesthesia.

I had mine done on the 9 th, it was awful I threw up for over 24 hours, I thought I was going to die and it would never end, but it did, come off all your pain meds if you can stand to, that's what stopped mine
