2days Post Op & Nausea



Recommended Posts

I was fine at the hospital and did not feel the nausea, but yesterday and this mornig that is all I feel. I have the feeling that I just want to vomit! Did anyone else have this? I am still struggling with the gas pains in my shoulder and back and neck as well. This biggest complaint I have though is nausea and it is rough!

Help!!

It would probably be worth a call to your surgeon/Dr. There are several anti nausea meds they could call in to a pharmacy for you. Some are Patches to be worn behind the ear. Others can be done by suppository---options other than by mouth which sometimes only goes down to come back up.

Til then just try the tiniest of sips, to keep yourself hydrated. Be sure to wait a few minutes between sips, to make sure you do not back Fluid up.

Changing positions frequently and moving will help with the gas pain, but it might cause the nausea to worsen.

Just make sure you DO move. Even if it is to just raise your legs, and make circles with your feet---do not lay immobile for long periods, you just had surgery and blood clots are the enemy!!

When you do get up to walk, try to stand as upright as possible and keep your eyes open, it will help some with the nausea.

Hope your Dr. can get you some meds....sorry you are having a rough go of it!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
