Genral feeling of Sick post op

[jaymeeo 0]

I am 6 days post op and I just feel sick. My stomach is just angry. Anything I eat or drink feels bad. Are there any tricks to not feeling sick all the time?

Have you contacted your doctor? For me the first few days was only liquids, and I did pretty good with that. However, when I started on the soft foods is where I started to feel sick all the time. My food would get stuck even though I followed my doctor's advise on the type of food to eat and to chew chew chew..

I did go to my doctor after 4 weeks post op and he found a narrowing of my stomach pouch which was causing all this discomfort. If the problem persist then please contact your doctor and let him/her know,

Hope you feel better soon.

At 6 days your stomach is still swollen from surgery and probably doesn't want anything in it. I had to stick with warm things to eat or drink. Cold was a big no-no for my tummy. I drank a lot of warm tea (with unflavored Protein in it) as well as blended cream of chicken Soup and other mushy foods. Yogurt took a while (couple of weeks) because of the coldness. I did get SF Jello down, but I let it sit on the counter for 1/2 an hour before I ate it. Again, your still swollen and things are still healing. You'll get there a little at a time. Have you gone for your 1 week check-up??? If not, mention it to your surgeon to be sure, but I'm guessing its just a time thing.
