Hey Vicki,

I had my surgery done on monday as well at 3:30pm.

Starving huh? Since Sunday night at 6pm, I had 2 small taste of yogart. And its Wednesday. Everything that I try to eat or drink I vomite. Including pain meds. I can NOT have any meds at all. Maybe thats why I feel so damn sick.

I went into surgery at 214.5 lbs, came home at 221 lbs, woke up this morning at 211 lbs.

Also, my surgeon found a hernia. He had to stich up. Maybe that could be it as well.

Must be me having bad side effects.

Thanks for your reply.

I spent the first two-three days after surgery vomiting. After that, I'd get an isolated dry heave 3-4 times a week for the first month or so. All I can tell you is to hang in there, and it will go away.

I too had dry heaves the first couple of days -- it was terrible and hurt so much -- but it will go away -- after the first couple of weeks, you'll start to feel normal again :) Hang in there :)

I had dry heaves while I was on the Morphine in the hospital but once I left the hospital I stoped taking pain meds . Maybe it is your meds doing it? Sorry you feel so bad hope you get to feeling better soon. It really does get better every day

I didn't have that but I had terrible gas pain...all I can say is it gets better with time, take care and I hope you feel better soon :)
