Yeah I take omiprezal once a day but it was not working. I called my nurse and she told me to try pepcid and zantac. By them self it didn't work but I put them together just a lil but ago and I feel so much better. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MOSunshine 8 Posted April 6, 2014 I am 18 days post op and I feel great. My love affair with food is definitely dying. I mostly eat now because I have to, I don't really plan my meals because there is so little that I can actually eat. It is a little depressing to be honest.

Susan-031314 179 Posted April 6, 2014 I. Agree MO. I'm on 'full liquid' for 2 more weeks. Very boring and most times I have my meal just because it's what I'm supposed to do. I feel a little nauseous every once in a while but I can't seem to figure out the trigger. I have not gotten sick, just get the occasional moment when I feel like I could.

Im 8 days out & decided to be nice to hubby & cook wrong move. I ate a few finger scoops of mash potatoes with corn stuck to it. It went down well, but i had to put the left overs in the ice box fast because i kept coming back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MOSunshine 8 Posted April 6, 2014 Wow im still on shakes, cant wait til friday to start puree food. Are u on a regular diet yet? What seems to be the problem? Well because I can eat such small amounts, I am all confused on what to eat. It took me from lunch to dinner to eat a Wendy's grilled chicken wrap. I didn't chew well on my last bite and ended up throwing up in my kitchen sink. That was so traumatic for me....I don't care to eat solids anymore..went back to liquids and yogurt. I am wondering when I will be able to eat solid foods comfortably. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps your not ready for dense Protein like meat? Wait a week them try again, each of our stomachs are in different stages of swelling. Our insides are not healed yet. We will all get through this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
