I am 3 days post op and cannot keep anything down. Did great in the hospital but came home and have been puking.

I spoke with the hospital today and they said to make sure that I am taking the anti nausea meds.

Will this get better, when. I am scared.

Well if you can't keep anything down including meds, i think you might want to contact your team again. They didn't release me until I was able to tolerate liquids. I'm assuming you're fast on your way to dehydration, which means you'll have to go back to the hospital anyway. I threw up almost the entire time in the hospital and threw up once at home, so I've been tolerating things well since (17 days post).

Always check with your doctor of course! I do remember feeling nauseous but it went away as soon as I stopped taking the pain meds. I didin't really need the pain meds anyway. But your mileage may vary and as I said, only your doctor/nurse can really advise you on this.

I agree that you need to call your doctor, and really just wanted to comment to wish you well. I still have to take nausea meds at night sometimes. I hope you get better asap!

      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.
