Any Good Ones?



Recommended Posts

i was just wondering if there were any good over the counter nasuea medicine to prevent me from throwing up. i am currently 8 days post op and there are some times then i just get really nauseous. I was wondering if there was anything i could pick up from Walmart or something that works well. Or any medicine that i maybe shouldnt try for some reason.

i know everyone is different and medicine reacts different to everyone but i was just asking for some input or anything cause i really have no idea what i should get from the store.

thanks so much for the help

you guys are the best

You may want to call your doctor. I haven't been nautious since surgery, but I know before when I was feeling sick to my stomach, I would take some pepto and it would help. There is tons of anti nausea medicine over the counter. I would stick to the liquid or chewables. Hope you feel better!

Might be an idea to look into why you are feeling sick, are you still on liquids ? is your body detoxing ? is it after protien shakes etc, too much sugar or salt ? , i would discuss it with your Doctor if you can as you shouldnt really be feeling this way all the time, or enough of the time to need meds. Its probably something really simple that will go away after a few more days healing but its always worth checking it out with the Doctor.

Good luck :)

Or you could call to see if the doc would give you a scopolamine patch. It goes behind the ear. Works for a few days. Phenergan is nice too. Def call the doc!

I remember seeing you write before that you are still on Clear Liquids, and will be for 4 weeks, maybe ask your Dr if you can incorporate a Protein Shake or two a day? I know sometimes if I get too hungry I feel sick, maybe thats the problem.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
