Your surgeon should have given you anti-nausea meds as it is important that you don't vomit at this time.

Feeling nauseous and having a sore throat are normal after a general, so, unless there are more symptoms that you haven't mentioned, you are probably feeling quite normal. - hope that makes you feel better!

Stay in close touch with your medical team but also be assured that you will feel better with each passing day.

I had a bad reaction too... My doc put a patch behind my war and ordered phenigran and zofran. I felt much better the next day and no problems since. Are you at home or in the hospital? Hope you feel better soon.

Definitely stay in communication with your surgeon's office. They should have given you a prescription for nausea, and an anti-emetic. It's very important for you to stay properly hydrated, otherwise the nausea could become a symptom for dehydration.

A sore throat following general anesthesia is normal, as you had a tube there during the surgery.

You will feel better with every day that passes...but don't risk becoming dehydrated. Let your surgeon know what is happening with you.

Best wishes to feel better fast...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
