Did anyone else have an anti-nausea patch to wear?



Recommended Posts

Wondered if it should be really sticky? My surgeon requires me to wear one 24 hours but mine isn't super sticky and I'm afraid it will fall off

I put my patch on 2 hrs prior to leaving.

They put mine on when I was being prepped for surgery. It stayed on for two days until the nurse took it off. Be careful not to touch the medicine on it...they told me it would cause blurred vision if you touch it and then touch your eyes. I just let the nurse take care of it, LOL.

Yes, and mine stayed on just fine. Put it on and forget about it until time to remove it.

I always get sick after surgery. Between the shot they gave me and the patch they put on while prepping for surgery. I had no problems. Patch was on for 2 days. Took off when released from hospital.

They gave me one when I was being prepped as well, and took it off before I left 2 days later...it lasted through a shower as well.

They put one on me when I was being prepped for surgery. And the blurry vision is true! I left mine on for days and my vision was totally blurry.

Was patched at the hospital and was told it would dilate your pupils if you touched it and touched your eyes.

I took mine off the next day. I had no nausea but was so tired I could barely keep my eyes open. Apparently that's a side effect.

Are you sure you peeled the back off properly? Those things are super sticky. At least the ones il had. I know that seems like a dumb question but I've had several and that stuff is very sticky! Maybe its a different brand.....

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
