3 weeks out...still feeling sick

2girliemama · July 17, 2011

I need help, I am eating and drinking all the right stuff and still feel like I am going to throw up almost all day long. Any tips? I am taking some nasuea meds, but they are hard to get down too. I am throwing up froth and some times just dry heaving. Any thoughts? Will it get better? I am still on full liquids.< /p>

I felt the same way...and still do occasionally I am 4 weeks, 3 days out right now. It was like a switch was flipped Monday my 4 week day. All of a sudden I could eat and didn't feel so gross afterward. If I eat too fast or too big of bites I can feel it otherwise...EVERYONE was right...it does get a lot better!

GOOD LUCK!

Thanks! Ya know, misery loves company. I think I just need to listen to my evil little sleeve and like my nurses hounded me, SIP, SIP, SIP!!

I will keep you posted. ps, I am still VERY tired too and my two little ones are wearing me out. I try to nap every day.

Monday I will be 4 weeks out and I'm nauseated and even occasional vomiting. I'm so sick I cannot even leave the house. I'm much sicker than right after the surgery. Meds do not seem to help and that's if I can get them. I know I'm not drinking or eating enough, but I just can't!! I so sick I'm beginning to be sorry that I had surgery. I need to return to work in 2 weeks and cannot even imagine how that is going to happen. Will I ever feel better again?!!!

Helena... is it possible that you could be getting dehydrated? I know that all of those issues can be exacerbated by not getting enough fluids in you... Have you tried calling your surgeon and see what their viewpoint is? I really hope you start feeling better... Good Luck
