Hi everyone

I am two weeks post op for gastric sleeve. I was traveling along nicely and then bang, severe and intense nausea. No other symptoms just this. The meds the doctor gave me aren't working, not even touching iit. I am in Australia so it is like zofran. I am so ill I can't function. Is this normal and what ste people's experience in the length it lasts? Any other tips or meds I could try? This is awful

You could have a leak...I would be contacting your surgeons office asap. Fingers crossed it's not.

The anti-nausea drugs work very well, if you are still feeling sick I would call the surgeon right away, something might be wrong.

I was very nauseous for a while the meds helped very little, I had a endoscopy and it showed I had bile in my stomach...I sucked on ginger candy for a little while....I want to say I was better after about 4 1/2 months

Mint tea helped me more than zofran.

      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.
