Have you talked to your surgeon? He may have some suggestions for you. I was never nauseous but did have diarrhea issues starting a month after surgery. I eventually needed Rx meds and he consulted with my PCP to get them to me since my surgery was in Mexico.

Like outsidematchinside mentioned, it may turn to Constipation at some point but be careful in the meantime. I needed IV fluids for dehydration 3 times in my second month postop because I could not keep up with the Fluid loss from the diarrhea.

Nausea in the hospital could have been due to your pain meds and anesthesia.

Are you still in pain meds at home? I would put a call into your Dr. If it is really bothersome they could prescribe you something.

I still have cycles of diarrhea and Constipation at 6 months out. Just keep your fluids up. Drink some Powerade zero or G2
