Call your surgeon's office and ask them to call in a prescription for Zofran ODT - ODT dissolves under your tongue so it works better. I had to use Zofran for a LONG time post-op but nausea eventually went away.

I hope this gets better for you. Morning of day 1 post op is the only day I dealt with nausea.

I was sleeved 8/1/16 and I've had some nausea but nothing like you described. Mine has been mainly in waves when I get out of bed or take a shower.

I did try eating very soft Mac and cheese tonight just to have something to chew and while it was delicious, I was too stressed out to enjoy due to concern of taking too big of bite or was I going to get sick? It made my stomach upset after and I probably only ate 10 elbow macaronis.

Your doctor doesnt have you on a liquid diet? Im going on week 3 and am just now dareing full liquids and maybe purees.

Be careful and try Clear Liquids your first week. You can tear you stitches eating soft foods.

I hit the 60 oz goal fairly quickly surprisingly bc it took freaking all day just sip sip sip so that's why I decided to try the super soft Mac and cheese but learned the hard way I need to wait a little longer since it gave me diarrhea (I think? Maybe a combo of that anesthesia still releasing)

Fatty or sugary foods cause dumping. I have to say im suprised you are able to get that much liquid down so quicky. Try sugar free Jello if you can. It makes you feel full and gives you the chewing motion. I froze chrystal like and ate those and it helped alit with chewing and my constant thirst

Good luck

I haven't heard of "dumping " before. I hope this isn't a brand new constant issue. I will have to try the Jello and crystal lite cubes!! Thank you!!

You are very welcome.

Dumping is something you will have to be careful of from now on. Fatty foods, sugary foods both cause it.

I've been trying to force myself to do full liquids and am still to affraid because they make me feel like I'm stretching my stomach and I'm a wimp to pain.. Lol..

Remember to take your multi Vitamins, nasty as they are.. Lol

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
