Veteran sleevers...HELP. 6 weeks out, nausea starting again?



Recommended Posts

If I skip my PPI or am more than a few hours off from when I normally take it my day is done for and I have heartburn that settles into nausea. I usually take one 20mg pill in the morning and on these days will take a second. Might be worth a try. My surgeons office said because of the progression of heartburn to nausea it is just how my body deals with the acid.

I had terrible nausea the first 2 months. I could only drink Water if I put lemon and/or ginger in it. I also discovered on Amazon these wonderful ginger drops called Tummy Drops. They saved me! It finally went away. I hope all is well with you and you feel better soon.

I pretty much eat the SAME diet daily...there are a few variations' date=' but mostly the same stuff. I do know the PA told me that nausea could be gallbladder issues, BUT i'm not hurting at all. Yesterday and today, I have hardly been able to eat much of anything - between 300-500 calories and that is FORCING myself to eat.[/quote']

I had nausea and vomiting and had to have my gallbladder out Im in the same boat I did okay the first 6 weeks then everything just went downhill

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
