I am 3 days post op and cannot keep anything down. Did great in the hospital but came home and have been puking.

I spoke with the hospital today and they said to make sure that I am taking the anti nausea meds.

Will this get better, when. I am scared.

Well if you can't keep anything down including meds, i think you might want to contact your team again. They didn't release me until I was able to tolerate liquids. I'm assuming you're fast on your way to dehydration, which means you'll have to go back to the hospital anyway. I threw up almost the entire time in the hospital and threw up once at home, so I've been tolerating things well since (17 days post).

Always check with your doctor of course! I do remember feeling nauseous but it went away as soon as I stopped taking the pain meds. I didin't really need the pain meds anyway. But your mileage may vary and as I said, only your doctor/nurse can really advise you on this.

I agree that you need to call your doctor, and really just wanted to comment to wish you well. I still have to take nausea meds at night sometimes. I hope you get better asap!

      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!!
