Getting on zofran - 11 weeks post op



Recommended Posts

After three weeks of having nausea 24 hours a day - I finally called the dr and told him to give me something . I actually went to see him last week - or maybe the week before- and he said this was all normal.

The nurse today said " well this is unusual" which did not make me feel better.

Anyone not gotten sick until later like this??

I am 6 weeks post op with the sleeve. The last 3 weeks I've been constantly nauseous. If I eat, if I don't eat. It doesn't matter. NOTHING tastes good or sounds good, so consequent I'm not eating as much as I should be. I finally called my doctor last week, and she told me to concentrate on getting my 64oz of Water in. Which is tough, when it sits in your stomach like a lead balloon. After a week of working on my Fluid intake, I'm still constantly nauseous. So I'm going to call and see if they can prescribe me some anti-nauseous meds. I know how you feel. Hopefully it will get better. Good luck to you

I was constantly nauseous and nothing was helping at one of my follow ups I asked for zofran and have been taking it non stop ever since. I take it like 3 times a day because it really helps and because I'm ALWAYS nauseous. My primary doc was not happy about the amount of zofran I was taking so she prescribed levsin to take before meals and that helps a lot too if you wanna ask your surgeon for that as well.

Well I had my GB removed 2 months ago which set me back in terms of nausea. After my sleeve I was okay but after GB I got crazy chronic nausea and now I'm like basically addicted to zofran so it's tough.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
