Recommended Posts

the gas pain finally went away yesterday, but i have been nauseous all nite last nite and all day today. i havent been able to drink too much. Water is all i can really take. i tried some broth, but was only able to get a few teaspoons in.

Last nite i threw up, dry heaves really, since there was nothing in my stomach but a little water. Today i just threw up again, but this time it was bile that came out. I do feel a little bit better afterwards.

Am i nauseous and throwing up because i have nothing in my stomach? i spoke to my surgeon this morning and he said to not take any Protein Drinks yet, since im feeling nauseous, and if i still feel this way tomorrow, he will prescribe some anti-nausea meds.

What if anything am i doing wrong? I feel like crapola.

Nausea is common after surgery. Just follow your surgeon's instructions; if you are worried about it call back and ask that they phone you in an anti-nausea prescription now rather than tomorrow.

i was banded 2 june. i was also nauseous at first but found it got better after i managed to get some Soup down. So for me i think it must have been hunger even though i didn't feel hungry.

I was banded 8th June... and the day after I was dry heaving - seems they just needed to change my anti sickness meds...

As soon as they did that, and I had eaten some Soup, I was fine. I'm now on day 4 and feeling great apart from port site pain.

I am sorry to hear that. I had my surgery on June 3rd but I was never nauseated. Did they send you home with a patch behind you ear for nausea?

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
