Day 4 and worse'd day so far.



Recommended Posts

Had surgery on Monday 20th, first two days went by pretty easy, yesterday wasn't to bad, but today has been no fun, dry heaves and now more sickness, had to use the bucket more then once today, Pain in the right side is just as bad, but hurts more when the dry heaves start, those seem to start after taking the anti sickness pills, Please tell me this is going to be worth it, I've never felt this bad before.

I would put a call into your doctor maybe you need some type of other pill. They make the big bucks so worry about you feeling better. Good luck!

I too had surgery on the 20th and have been nauseous yesterday. But I took zofran and it kicked it in the butt. But it gets better. My nurses were surprised that I am doing so well. It gets better. I promise. If you wanna have a buddy just let me know and I'll talk to you!

Oddly I think day 4 was rough for me too. I had one day of nausea -- it was 3 or 4 -- I hope you feel better very soon!

Dry heaving is not normal unless you are drinking too fast or have eaten something your not supposed to. If you are foaming you need to go to ER. That is a sign your esophagus near your pouch collapsed. Also watch your heart rate (not over 120) and temp.

FYI my worse days were 4-9

      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.
