2 Days Post Open Severe Nausea



Recommended Posts

That's good news! I know it's apples and oranges, but I had really bad morning sickness for all 9 months of my first pregnancy. If I had nothing in my stomach the vomiting and dry heaves would continue until I ate. But of course I didn't want to eat because I was super nauseous. It was a vicious cycle some days.

I read your posts frequently and I'm hoping this will be a turning point for your daughter.

@@LSF Thanks for checking on her! They started her on IV nutrition last night (TPN.) She'd been vomiting over 20 times a day but so far, for some reason she's actually feeling better today! She is less nauseated and she's not vomited in over 24 hours. She was even able to sip some liquids today. They're baffled why the TPN would help with the nausea. I'm baffled why it took them so long to give them to her! We've been here 15 days, day 16 today.

Yes, the surgery is scheduled for Thursday and we can possibly go home on Friday depending on how she's doing. We can do the TPN IV at home until she is able to start eating on her own.

Um, probably because she has not had any nutrition in her stomach in 6 weeks!! I'm praying for her!

@cc4math @newbeginning77@desertgirl_74@Chrystee Thank you all! It really helps to have this support.

Day 41 Post Op. She continued to do pretty well yesterday until she had a shower about 9:30pm. After the shower she started blacking out and threw up afterwards. Sigh. Well at least she got 24 hours in without vomiting. I'm still taking it as progress. She's still asleep this morning so I'm not sure how she's doing today but I think she's still better.

I bet her blood pressure is very low.. make sure her Water isn't too hot and she is careful when she gets up and sits down..

Hope the IV helps even though she only got thru 24 hours. Keep us posted on her surgery and we will all be praying for her.

6 weeks Post Op today. She had the 2nd surgery on the kidney stone today and they successfully got it! It had traveled back up towards the kidney so that thing was not going to come out on its own, that's for sure.

It remains to be seen how/if this will affect the nausea and vomiting. I'm praying it was the cause of it all and she'll be nausea and vomit free after today! Thanks all for the thoughts and prayers.

@@ssourgirl What great news! I'm so glad they were able to get it. Now that the pesky critter is outta there, I'm praying that she will bounce back quickly and start her recovery. Hang in there mama!

@@ShellMilliner Thank you!

She's doing really well so far today. The nausea has diminished a great deal! She has even taken a few bites of food today and is drinking without nausea and vomiting! YAY! She's still on IV TPN but they are talking about discharging her tomorrow (she will still have IV at home until she can fully sustain food and drink.) I'm hopeful for the first time in a long, longggg time!

So it sounds like it was the kidney stone. Hopefully this means she's on the upswing. Hoping the rest of her post op goes smoothly!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
