Intense morning nausea



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on 1/28/15. Since then, I have had really intense morning nausea. And no, I am not pregnant! ;) Even brushing my teeth makes me gag. I am able to sip a Protein Shake after I take the anti-nausea meds the doctor prescribed and keep it down. But, the prescription will be out soon. I was just wondering, did anyone else experience this and, if so, did it go away? Do you remember how long it took? If it doesn't go away, are there any tips or tricks to dealing with it without meds?

Nausea can also be caused by and prolonged by dehydration, you may have to up your liquid intake, especially Water.

I still battle with nausea, but I have learned most of it is caused by bad habits like drinking or eating too fast. If I go slow and take small sips and bites, it is much better. Also, as many people suggested, drinking ice cold beverages helps. The colder, the better. I am thinking of getting one of those margarita machines and filling it with Water and crystal light so I have sugar-free slushes available at all times. ;)

I was like that too and used to drink a Protein shake in the morning and it was making me sick my dr recommend it to have some tea or small bite of string cheese first and then shakes later during the day!!

Good luck I know nausea is the worst

      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.
