Recommended Posts

I'm 2 days post op. I'm home but I am having some bouts of nausea. The nausea is worse then the pain for me. When did your nausea go away?

Give it time. My Doctor gave me several medications to take. It does get better. I would try different foods. I know that I am doing better with foods I wouldn't have thought I would. There are some that I thought would go easy and they do not. If you are not able to get food or Water in make sure you talk to your doctor.

I am 5 days post op and figures it's the weekend and nausea is hitting me bad. I've been sipping on low sodium chicken noodle Soup (I strain it just drink the broth) my tummy enjoys it way better than Water

Hi!

I am 7 weeks post op and due to extreme nausea for the past 6 weeks, I've been hospitalized twice, given out patient fluids twice, been on IV nutrition for 3 weeks, and had 3 endoscopes since my surgery.

It has not been pleasant, but it does gradually get better - especially if you don't have ulcers or strictures to deal with. And even if you do, there are procedures and medicines to help.

One piece of advice!!!!! Do NOT let yourself get dehydrated due to your nausea or any other reason! If you don't get in your fluids for more than a day- immediately call your doctor. I was so dehydrated a few weeks ago that I was hospitalized for 8 days straight. It was the absolute worst experience to date. Definity worse than the surgery.

When you become dehydrated your veins may become very difficult to stick and you could end up with a PICC line for easier access to IV fluids/other meds and nutrition. Trust me - it's no fun!!!!

Good luck with your nausea and recovery process!

So update. My nausea has improved very well. It is very slight if even there at all. I'm getting my fluids in and keeping to program. Thanks for the encouragement.

Did it improve with medication? Or just on it's own?

I think it went away on its own. The meds weren't doing much to it, I also changed up my Protein to see if that was causing it as well. So far so good, another day of no nausea.

      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.
