My surgery was April 4th of this year. I can't keep anything down. I'm not getting enough protein or fluids. Water, protein shakes, protein waters, jello, pudding, etc all comes back up. The only thing I can eat are sugar free Popsicles. I also suck on sugar free hard candy to help with dry mouth. It's frustrating. The hard part is I cook for my family and it's difficult because I can't eat any of it. I have an appetite but everything makes me throw up (I cant move past full liquids until I reach my protein goals). I'm back at work also and at lunch everyone goes out to eat and bring their food back to the office. The smells make me want to throw up but I miss eating. I feel like I might have a mental break because I really want to cry when I think about not being able to eat and constantly throwing up. Is anyone else experiencing this? Not being able to keep anything down? Just to clarify I only take in about an ounce or 2 of liquid before I feel nauseous and usually with an hour or two it's coming back up.

Thank you all for your advice. I reached out to my Dr and he ordered all these tests and blood work because this was not normal. He started me on new medication and hopefully soon things will get better. Thank you all again! Your support and advice was greatly appreciated and it really helped!!

I had my surgery on the 4th. I also had hernia repaired. My stomach hurts, I feel bloated, and it's difficult to drink anything. I've also been sleeping alot. Im not worried about the pain when drinking anymore, as others have had the same issue. It's a journey and not an easy one, but Im willing to take it. Wishing everyone the best!
