Nausea..What do YOU take.



Recommended Posts

Ok so I was banded Oct.3 and it went off without any major hitches I had little to almost no nausea up until the last few days. Last night as well as tonight I've felt terrible about an hour after dinner. Not enough to be sick but that OMG i'm green feeling. I've tried taking the liquid regulan they gave me and that isn't helping much at all. I have taken regulan before the surgery to help with bloating after meals because of my diabeties so not sure if that's the reason it's not working as well or if I'm just being a big baby. Any suggestions, because I can't keep on feeling this way every night.

BTW last night's dinner was egg tonight was roasted chicken.:w00t:

first off be thankful that you are even able to eat chicken! lol i was banded on 10/07 and am not supposed to have chicken until the 21st and can't have beef or pork til 3 days after my first fill (nov 3rd)... did you get a list of stuff that you can eat over the course of 2-3 weeks post op? maybe you are graduating your food too fast??? my doctor said the stomach needs at least 3 weeks to get back to "normal" and maybe your tummy isn't ready for chicken yet? you might also ask for topical Fenagrin (spelling?)... it really helped me in the first couple of days after surgery but luckily i haven't needed it since then... just take good care of yourself and talk to your dr or nurse regarding foods that you might not be ready for...

Best of luck

I too experienced nausea about a week after my surgery, not to the point of vomiting but very queasy and my doctor called in a prescription for Phenergan suppositories. They made me really sleepy, but really helped the nausea. Hope you feel better soon!

Phenergan or compazine works well for me. But I think your problem is coming from eating too much since it is after a meal. Slow it down and i bet that will help you. I still get nauseaous if i eat too much or too fast. Eat tiny bites and chew chew chew. Also you should really be eating over 30 mins and a only small quanitity of food.< /p>

can't be eating to much as I have a large band and it's open fully and still only eating less than a cup per meal. I've been eating the same amount since a day or two after surgery. I eat three meals and one snack a day and only get nausea after dinner, not eating more then than any of my other meals which I'm not getting any sort of nausea from.

I'll have them call in something else, I won't go to get my first fill until the 12th of November so I'd rather not wait till then.

I can't believe you're eating chicken already. I had to wait two full weeks then to puree it for another 10 days. The chicken sat wonderfully at that point. The only thing so far for me, that causes nausea is if I try to eat to fast. OR bread. Bread doesn't go well for me. And I'm completely unrestricted at this point.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
