Getting on zofran - 11 weeks post op



Recommended Posts

After three weeks of having nausea 24 hours a day - I finally called the dr and told him to give me something . I actually went to see him last week - or maybe the week before- and he said this was all normal.

The nurse today said " well this is unusual" which did not make me feel better.

Anyone not gotten sick until later like this??

I am 6 weeks post op with the sleeve. The last 3 weeks I've been constantly nauseous. If I eat, if I don't eat. It doesn't matter. NOTHING tastes good or sounds good, so consequent I'm not eating as much as I should be. I finally called my doctor last week, and she told me to concentrate on getting my 64oz of Water in. Which is tough, when it sits in your stomach like a lead balloon. After a week of working on my Fluid intake, I'm still constantly nauseous. So I'm going to call and see if they can prescribe me some anti-nauseous meds. I know how you feel. Hopefully it will get better. Good luck to you

I was constantly nauseous and nothing was helping at one of my follow ups I asked for zofran and have been taking it non stop ever since. I take it like 3 times a day because it really helps and because I'm ALWAYS nauseous. My primary doc was not happy about the amount of zofran I was taking so she prescribed levsin to take before meals and that helps a lot too if you wanna ask your surgeon for that as well.

Well I had my GB removed 2 months ago which set me back in terms of nausea. After my sleeve I was okay but after GB I got crazy chronic nausea and now I'm like basically addicted to zofran so it's tough.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
