Sarah Waring2014 25 Posted February 14, 2014 And I can only drink this hot peppermint tea without feeling sick. Water makes me so nauseous. Anyone gotta any Fluid intake tricks.? I been sticking with the tea. Forgot my Crystal light at home. I think my new tummy likes warn stuff;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperFab 689 Posted February 14, 2014 My sis had to do room temp or warmer at first. Had to use a couple drops of Mio in her Water. Supposedly, water has a lower tension level when you add Mio or Crystal Lite, so it goes down easier. Try Gatorade too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MizNola 25 Posted February 14, 2014 CC and Jen- glad to hear you're doing ok. I still have gas on day 3, but feels little better. No nausea and swallowing getting easier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MizNola 25 Posted February 14, 2014 Oh yeah- they gave me a patch behind my ear for nausea before the surgery. Might be why my nausea is low. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you still in the hospital. I know the gas hurts but, other than that, you seem to be rockin n rollin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just mix unflavored with mio or crystal lite in a Blender Bottle. Then add ice. The opening is small so I don't have to smell it. I don't use Unjury. I use my wls clinic's or Herbalife. Herbalife is by the spoonful. Not a scoop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MizNola 25 Posted February 14, 2014 I've been home since Wed. Night. Still have trapped air in body. Tummy looks like I'm about 4 months along; granted the two hernia repairs probably added to this. Got in 60oz. + last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bodie602 16 Posted February 14, 2014 Okay. I'm still loopy so forgive any silly spelling errors. I made it!!! This is my fourth surgery in four years and I have never been this loopy and put if it this long. Because of that I only got out of bed four times post op to pee. I haven't really walked yet. I got to have ice chips and room temp Water immediately, which surprised me. But I haven't had much due to the nausea. Oh boy, the nausea! But thank god I'm having no has pains. I had such awful gas pains with my previous surgeries. Well, this is make me tired and nauseas so TTFN! I'm so glad your doing good! Thanks for the progress report. Hope to hear more when your feeling better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z28ChevyCamaro 45 Posted February 14, 2014 Bree, are they giving you anything for the spasms? Nope. Doc told me that with my switch to full liquids that they would begin to go away. I started full liquids last night and they really have subsided. Still get one every once in a while but hey, I just had 85% of my stomach removed. It can be expected. 1 SuperFab reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tummy looks like I'm about 4 months along; granted the two hernia repairs probably added to this. Got in 60oz. + last night. I remember being like that after my gallbladder was removed. Lol. It took over a week for mine to go down. Hang in there n it'll go away. That's an amazing job on getting your Water done! Woot woot!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supposedly, Water has a lower tension level when you add Mio or Crystal Lite, so it goes down easier. Try Gatorade too. Mio is the absolute worst thing you can put in your water. Its actually antifreeze and has to be shipped to stores via haz-mat trucks. Chemicals in it are terrible! Just a heads up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z28ChevyCamaro 45 Posted February 14, 2014 Awesome. I learned a little something new with that. It's good that full liquids calm it down. I felt like the Clear Liquids weren't giving my stomach something to do. So when I had some cream of chicken and pudding, I feel like my sleeve was like 'Yes! WORK!' Haha!
