Still nauseous after 10 days plus no stamina



Recommended Posts

After 10 days I find myself very easily nauseous. I also have very little stamina. It's hard to get these walks in. I am SO thirsty that all I crave is Water. The last few days have been OK but still nauseous every day. Today is particularly bad because I also had a Migraine. UGH!

Anyone else having nausea and stamina issues this far out?

So sorry for you!

Adding more liquids will probably help the nausea. My doc wrote an Rx for anti-nausea med's to use as needed. You could ask your Dr. for that.

During my pregnancies I would place one mint leaf underneath my tongue and keep it there for a few minutes. The sickness would immediately abate and become so much more manageable. Mint is widely used as a natural anti-nausea treatment.

I'm having stamina issues so bad. I get really shaky in the shower (not dizzy or nauseous) but it takes everything out of me. Even getting dressed but yet walking no problem. Not sure what's going on....wish I had more energy!

Also, I've been having a lot of lower back pain and I don't know why. I'm passing gas, voiding ok, having bms. But it hurts, probably even more so than my incision. Anyone have any ideas?

I don't know what the back pain would be. Other than referred pain from your tummy or gas that you don't even know you have.

I stil have pain in the larger incision. They said that would hyrt the longest because it's where they pull the stomach through. (TMI truly) But I'm glad they told me.

Now I need to get walking more.

I am in the same boat as you. Feeling nauseous everyday for no reason know. I am 2 weeks out. Very tired, still a lot of pain on left side. Just want to feel better! Lord help us!

I am also still trying to get use to sipping and not drinking with food. That is a hard one. Normally I would get thirsty and just jug a whole glass down, not anymore, so I never feel my thirst is quenched. Always parched.

Are there any medication options for the nausea?

I had stamina issues until I was able to get some Protein down. How are you doing getting your Protein in?

I've asked my doc for more zofran. As for the Protein, I'm getting an average of about 80g. They want 90g but I still can handle only so much.

I just called Walgreens and they have zofran ready! Now my fingers crossed it helps since I just vomited again! Ugh!

Your Protein sounds great. I'm not getting that much in.

Good luck with the Zofran

Make sure that your not masking a UTI...bladder infection....it could be your kidneys....a call your medical team might be in order, just to rule it out.

Good luck,

      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.
