Hi I got banded this wed 25th, I was quite poorly after with sickness. However I am allergic to Morphine and the anathetist did say that in being allergic I was more likely to feel sick afterwards! the wind was the worse part which I am still getting rid of! But honestly dont worry as I was petrified and it was nothing!

<p>Hi Heather, </p> <p>I am the worst at anesthesia ,severe vommiting and nausea. I was banded two days ago and I expressed my concern to everyone. The anestheiologist gave me an anti nausea patch before putting me under . When I woke I was not vommiting but still sick as a dog. They gave me alot of meds to calm my stomach but nothing worked until phenegran. So if you get sick make sure they give phenegran 1st. That way you won't suffer for hours like I did. It is good advise to walk around get the gas out and to use the breathing thing, however it was impossible for me. Take care of nausea 1st.Good Luck and don't worry!</p>

      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.
