How often have you gotten sick?

[Chunkysoup 75]

Hopefully by this time you are already in surgery or done with surgery because my experience is different than the previous posters. Despite having a nausea patch and every single different kind of nausea medicine available administered after surgery I struggled ALOT with nausea and dry heaving about 3-4 hours after surgery. We just couldn’t get it under control. However, by the next day I felt great! That was just my personal reaction to the anesthesia used for surgery and it had to get out of my system. I am 6 days post op and typically wake up a bit nauseous but nothing so bad that I would throw up.

I have not vomited in the 16 months since gastric bypass. Nor was I nauseous from the general anesthesia. Thankfully, general anesthesia has never caused me any problems. Hope your surgery went well!

I just had surgery July 23rd, and vomited that night and early morning. I think it was from a combination of the anesthetic and gas they use for laparoscopy surgery. They sent me home with meds for nausea and gas the next day, which helps a little. I usually have to walk to relieve the pressure.

10 months post op and I still throw up a few time a month at least. I’ve thrown up maybe 30 or more times this year? Not sure- but more than I’ve ever in my whole life combined! Not fun at all. Although when you don’t have stomach acid anymore it’s not as painful.

One week out and I threw up/dry heaved on day 2 in the hospital. After that, they loaded me up on nausea medication for the rest of my stay. Haven’t had any issues at home.

Once, immediately after waking up from surgery.

I would TAKE THAT just to know things will be better afterward! Karma- are You Tuned In?

I never threw up and I never got the foamies. I get dumping syndrome sometimes which manifests as hot flashes and a stomach ache if I eat too much or have too much sugar.
