shelly75 35 Posted May 20, 2014 Hi everyone, I've been nauseous for the past week. I'll be 6 weeks post-op in 2 days. I called the nurse so we can try to figure out what was causing the nausea. At first, I thought it was my Vitamins, so the nurse told me to stop them and see if the nausea would go away. It didn't. It always started after lunch and got worse throughout the day. The worst was in the evening. I kept feeling like I was about to throw up, but only saliva would come out (sorry for being so gross!). At the end of the worst episode, I felt something like heartburn. So, the next day, I tried Tums, lunch time and supper time and my nausea got better. The day after that, I took my regular antacid pill in the morning and also took one before supper and no nausea at all. I called the nurse today to let her know I thought it was acid reflux so we are still testing it out, but it looks like that's what it is. So heartburn is not always a side effect because I didn't have that, I just had bad nausea and the salivating. I feel much better now and wanted to share in case someone else was going through this and didn't know what was causing the nausea. Hope this helps. 2 woo woo and AvaFern reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChavaBling 145 Posted May 20, 2014 Thanks for the tip. Acid reflux does some very strange things to people, and it can effect us all in varying ways. 1 shelly75 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
