10 days post op nauseous

[sleevedUk 1]

Hi everyone

This is my first topic in here, I had my gastric sleeve surgery on the 26th of August, I was nauseous on the third day and unable to sip on anything, afterwards I started feeling better I was trying to get my liquids in I still feel some discomfort but nothing really painful, but today I took my Multivitamin and also a medication that prevents gallstones then had two sips of some powder Soup, immediately I got extremely nauseated and threw all the liquids up and also some blood, I called the hospital and they say there is nothing to worry about and that if it happens again I should go to A&E, at the moment whenever I drink just a sip of Water I feel still a bit nauseated is this normal ? I am going tomorrow for staples removal anyway but wanted to check if anybody here had the same experience. Thank you

Multi-Vitamins make me nauseous. Have they given you an anti-nausea med?

Yes Kristen I was given anti nausea medication which I took and me slightly better, but last night I was having this chest ball that prevents me from taking deep breaths only when lying on my back, I also woke up nauseous and can't stand any smell Im now scared to put anything in my mouth including Water, I suspect my oesophagus was irritated when I vomited I am so scared I will have a hernia or some bad acid reflux

I am on day 15 and yesterday I had similar reaction. After taking my Multivitamin (which I previously had no issues with) I started to feel sick. All day! I dry heaved last night. Can't stand smells, I feel a little better today - haven't taken the multi Vitamin yet. I had some Water, 2 oz of Protein Shake and went and got a sugar free slurpee. Gonna go back to bed for a while and see how I feel.

@@KristenLe I have seen the nurse today, she said that it was probably a reaction to the gallstone medication, and maybe I irritated my oesophagus she didn't seem too worried about this, she told me I can move on to puréed food today, she also recommended I take the nausea pills when needed.

@@cali mom sorry you are feeling this way, I can tell you it is not a good feeling at all especially when you think that things are getting better! Just try and rest it will sort itself out.
