5 weeks out and still feeling horrible.



Recommended Posts

Has this happened to anyone else? When did it subside?

I'm (no exaggerating) am nauseous 24/7, having a hard time getting liquids and food in, nothing sounds appetizing. I've been the the ER twice for pain and dehydration and have had every test in the book. There is nothing wrong. I'm miserable. Is this going to be my new life?

HELP

I'm only 3 weeks post op. However, there is definitely something not right. I only get nauseous if I drink to fast or after I take my Vitamins. I would definitely make an appointment and make sure there's not inflammation or something. I hope you feel better.

My surgeon prescribed zofran to prevent nauseousness. Maybe get a prescription for that to help you.

I am just over 5 weeks post op, the first 3-4 weeks were miserable. Nauseated all the time, had to be put on IV fluids for 3 days twice. Then it just started getting better. I still deal with occasional nausea but have meds for that. Just hang in there it does get better.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
