Recommended Posts

I had my surgery wed April 9 .I dont have any pain but the nausea is horrible. Everything I sip I wanna throw it up. I have to take the anti nausea meds to keep anything down. Without that it comes back up. Im having a hard time getting my fluids in. Anyone else have that problem?

Hang in there, it does get better. I took nausea meds too, but only for a week and was better. I didn't have trouble drinking fluids but it did make me get an upset stomach

Yep..had the same issue. Just do the best u can. It will get better overtime.

Don't worry too much about how much Protein u intake are the beginning..most people cannot get the recommended protein for a few weeks. Call your dr if you are concerned.

If the nausea is so bad you are regretting the surgery, something must be seriously wrong. Maybe you should go to the ER or call your doctor. Good luck and get some answers.

Yea idk. It probably wouldnt hurt to just throw your surgeon a call if it persists. Mine is swollen too but im thinking it just still healing.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
