Im 4 weeks out and feeling very nauseated all day. I drink I feel nausea, I can't stand to eat anything I get nauseated. Anyone else have that as well?

I could just be the healing process but here are a few things you can consider:

1) I couldn't tolerate plain Water. Some days it still bothers me and I'm nearly 2 years out!

2) Make sure you're not dehydrated.

3) Is it your Protein shake? How about dairy? I became lactose intolerant post op and it started with nausea after a shake and finally became all day nausea and intestinal distress after a few months. Once I figured out it was the dairy the issue was resolved (no dairy...now that I'm farther out I can tolerate small amounts again).

4) Have you had a marked increase in your consumption of artificial sweeteners? If you switched to low carb everything post op, you might be getting too many of these and they sometimes cause funny side effects like nausea, trouble sleeping, intestinal distress, etc.

5) Believe it or not, sometimes acid reflux isn't just a burning/heartburn feeling - nausea isn't uncommon. So make sure your PPI is up to the task of controlling your acid. I started out on Nexium but it wasn't doing the trick after about a month so I switched until I was finally happy on Prilosec.

6) Finally, I can't begin to say why but warm liquids always treated me better early on. Even after healing when spasms from the cold drinks weren't a concern. Nowadays I still prefer very cold or hot beverages over something room temperature, and it seems to settle better that way, too.

I hope you figure it out!
