Surgery on 9/9, nauseated daily



Recommended Posts

I had my sleeve on 9/9 and was fine the first week. Now, I am nauseated every morning and can not keep anything down until around noon. The thought of my Protein makes me gag.

Anyone else have this problem?

Are you still taking any pain meds? They are typically the biggest culprits. Drinking Water too quickly can also exacerbate any nauseous feelings. The morphine in the hospital made me more miserable, and they kept prodding me to hit the button even though I was feeling no pain. However, you may in fact be one of the lucky people whose taste buds may be completely changing!

Are taking pepcid or another acid controlling medication? There was only one morning I woke up nauseous because I had fallen asleep without taking it the night before. Just a thought.

I DON'T KNOW IF I HAD THE SAME ISSUE BUT I WAS FURTHER INTO MY JOURNEY WHEN I FELL INTO HAVING SEVERE NAUSEA EVERY SINGLE WAKING MORNING. IT GOT SO BAD THAT I HATED WAKING UP, AND I GOT SEVERELY DEPRESSED. I WILL MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT THAT I WAS THAT WAY FOR A COUPLE MONTHS STRAIGHT AND THEN ONE MORNING I WOKE UP AND WAS FINE EVERY MORNING SINCE THEN. IT WAS THE WORST THING EVER AT THE TIME BUT NOW IT IS A DISTANT MEMORY. YOU WILL BE JUST FINE BEFORE YOU KNOW IT!

I was on omeprazole for a month after surgery. A week or two after stopping it, I started getting nauseated, experienced heartburn and threw up a few times. Called my surgeon's office and they put me back on the omeprazole and said to continue for three months.

I did for sure and it was caused by the Protein shakes! When I ate Soups that I added unflavored injury powder, though, I was fine. I've come to discover if it's Meal Replacement Protein Shakes vs. protein only shakes I'm ok. It's the added Vitamins that made me nauseous. I have to be really selective with the vitamins I take too. Some make me throw up within minutes of taking them.

vitamins are tough for me too. I just purchased the Multivitamin transdermal Patches that were delivered this morning! Yay! One thing to not have to take orally!

      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.
