Unable to feel nauseous after sleeve?

I have never felt nauseous since getting the sleeve, I thought I have just been real lucky and not gotten ill since my surgery. However today I have felt off all day,, dizzy, weak, heart pounding but I did not put much thought to it. Then tonight this pressure started in my stomach, I felt it contracting and so I thought well I will try to get sick and sure enough up came everything. The weird thing is I did not feel nausea, just pressure and contracting. Has anyone else lost the feeling of nausea from this surgery?

I definitely have felt nausea. I had the flu about 8 weeks out and uck!

Out of curiosity...how has the weather been in Chicago? Has it been hot the last few days? Are you drinking enough? It almost sounds like you're getting an electrolyte imbalance.

The pressure and contracting after I eat is what I get if something doesn't agree with me. My tummy roils around enough I have to undo my pants. One time I threw up a bunch of slimy stuff for about 15 minutes, but every other time, the discomfort goes away within 10 minutes or so.

I felt the sudden "I' gonna heave" feeling twice in the week after surgery, but not since. My tummy feels "a bit off" most of the time anymore. I think it's still healing (surgery May 17 included a small hiatial hernia repair).

You know you maybe on to something there,, I had cramps in my feet when I work up that morning!

Last week, I ate something too fast and didn't feel my "full" signal and what you experienced happened to me. It wasn't nausea, but I had to expell whatever wasn't going into my stomach (and surprisingly that's all that came up, just that little bit).

Should I have felt nauseaus? I don't know. I've thrown up without nausea before surgery so it's hard to say that the sensation has been completely removed. But I have no problem interpreting what I am feeling as "something's coming up soon, get ready".

I havne't felt nausea since surgery but I can't say that I felt it much before surgery either.
