1 week out and still in pain

[perforce 243]

This is my second day post op still in hospital and feeling very bad. Nausea is killing me. I throw up every 1-2 hours and still can't get anything to drink. I am very worried

I had my surgery on the 2nd and am still hurting, but do feel a little better. I was nauseated but they put something in my IV to sort it out, and now on day three while I still have some pain my drain came out today an I've been off IVs since mid yesterday. The drain coming out made me feel a bit better. Get your docs to give you anti-nausea stuff! I was really scared about throwing up because I was in a lot of pain and the thought of having to engage the muscles needed to throw up made me want to cry a little. Day two is pretty awful, day three will see some improvement.

I had my surgery on Tuesday, so this is my second day post op as well. I am still in the hospital, set to be sent home today. The first day was the worst for me but yesterday during the day wasn't much better. I was so nauseous and sick. I couldn't hold any liquids. I stopped using morphine and haven't thrown up since. That was definitely making it worse. I am still slightly uncomfortable but it's getting better. I slept on my side last night and it worked wonders!! Feeling much better

We're so alike! I did the leak test today and it's all good. I am set to go home too. I am feeling a little dizzy though, but much better than previous 2 days

Good luck going home and I hope you both continue to improve. I have to admit I'm kind of relieved I'm not going home yet, I feel better than I did but certainly wouldn't feel ready to fly etc.

Try mixing your pain meds with 2 oz Water. Mine made me so nauseous and when I added the water the nausea went away.

I am so sad to hear people are having such troubles. I hope and pray all those still so sick one week out start to feel better and things turn around for you all.

I had my 3 surgeries gallbladder, hernia and sleeve on Tuesday Jan 26th. This was the first surgeries I ever had. It took 2 hours and I was in recovery for 3 hour. I was very sick with pain on Tuesday and even Wednesday. I ate 1 Jello the whole 2 days I was there. I was given a nausea patch the night before surgery for behind my ear. I had 30 mg of dilaudid in recovery and for the rest of Tuesday and Wednesday. I had one incident of dry heaves. By Thursday I was feeling great and was able to go home. Have been able to get my 60 to 80 grams of Protein in each day since Friday. I know each person reacts differently but I was very pleased with my recovery and seriously doubt I will need the 4 to 6 weeks the dr told me to take. Tuesday I get to eat my first real food since Jan 24th an egg. I am not the least bit hungry and have no head hunger what so ever. I have lost 17 pounds since Jan 26th.
