morphiend 0 Posted August 17, 2009 I'm home after my surgery. Everything went fine and dandy. I actually have the Realize band and I had the "single" insision. The only trouble I"m having right now is that I'm really nauseous. But hopefully that will go away soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greytz 4 Posted August 17, 2009 Congrats! I really had problems with nausea in the beginning also. I found out I had stomach flu and then I still had nausea for about a week after. It finally went away and it felt so good to be human again. Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abbypoo 0 Posted August 17, 2009 Congrats! I had problems with nausea too, the doctors said it was from the anesthesia. I think they were right because it went away in the first day post-op. Anyway, hope you heal up well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
formerfatchick 1 Posted August 17, 2009 YAY ! SARAH ! Welcome to the band wagon !! the nausea was also really bad for me. Get the motion sickness wrist bands at your local pharmacy, they actually work !! Or you can also have your primary call you in a prescription for Zofran, liquid or rapid melts, they also worked wonders for me !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

morphiend 0 Posted August 18, 2009 Thanks guys! I'm actually feeling better. I wonder if the gas was making me feel nauseous instead of actually being nauseous if that makes any sense. I feel like I have a lot of pressure around my sternum. YAY! I'm so excited to join the Band wagon!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MissK 0 Posted August 19, 2009 Congrats Sarah - the gas is giving me a lot of pain/pressure around the sternum as well. Hope you are feeling well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
