I woke up this morning feeling extremly nauseous. I feel my stomach wanting to force the vomit out but nothing actually comes out. Is this normal? What can I do to stop the nausea? I already took anti-nausea medication and pepto bismol but I still feel like vomiting.

I'd call your doctor. Too much heaving can be a problem for a band. They might want you to take a prescription anti-nausea medication.

Hey Catfish, keep me updated because we are living parallel lives. I am banded a little over 2 months and felt that way this week, minus the heaving.

I had a bout of the stomach flu last month and it was horrid. I can't throw up. I can heave my brains out, but like you, nothing actually comes up. I know it really sucks when you are so sick. Definitely call your doctor and see if he can't give you something.

Well there is something I have not thought of...how does that work if you get the flu? Do you have to be prescribed something every time? What happens if you vomit out of the blue? How do you stop it so you don't damage the band or your stomach?

      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.
