I never had much nausea but, I was given two antinausea meds. I took one in the morning and 1 at night. Maybe you should call your surgeon and ask for something better?

I would call your doctor to ask for a different dose or different medication

I just got sleeved on May 16th and my nausea has greatly outweighed the pain I have in my body. The first day was terrible. They gave me zofran as well and then they ran the gamut on what they gave me at the hospital. They gave me this shot called compazine ( I think) and it cleared it all up. The zofran at home seems to be doing better since then at keeping nausea to a minimum. I find if I lay totally flat though it increases my nausea.

Im 7 days out and was nauseas like crazy. The second night in the hospital I was hit with real bad nausea and indigestion. I was given something for it which helped alot. I was advised by nurse to get Mylicon chewables (childrens) to fight at home, if I get hit with it again. Its helping me out like no other. Pick some up!

I was sleeved Mon May 14 and my nausea was so severe I couldn’t keep even the tiniest sip of liquids down for the first two days. The nurses tried a variety of nausea meds and Carafate finally worked. It was like a miracle!! It is a drug frequently used for ulcers and it coats your stomach. It has a chalky taste like liquid stomach medicine. I don’t mind it at all. Finally Wed I could keep down tiny sips down and was released from the hospital. I now have a giant bottle to use at home. It was expensive but worth it. Good luck!!

      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.
