Congrats on the op :) Its fine and very normal cuz your body is adjusting to your new stomach.

By the time you leave hospital or a couple of days after you will feel fine.

Good luck!

I did the same thing. I felt great the morning after surgery and then three hours latter, I was ready to curl up and pass out due to the nausea. The nurse gave me a shot, but it didn't help. I didn't get any help with it until they gave me something behind my ear. I couldn't even keep down the ice chip I was sucking on. I only threw up once and that was just bile. The rest of the time it was just dry heaving. Once they removed my drainage tube, I felt 100xs better. I couldn't believe such a little tube could do all that. I am sorry you are going through this. Hope you feel better soon. :)

By the way .. you could be vomitting whats left from the anaesthetic. Its kinda like dark coloured slime. After that you will feel a lot better.

I am in the beginning process, finishing all the crazy tests! How much did it change your lives? I don't mean weight wise, eating habits, socializing, etc?

I was having extreme vomiting for about a day and a half after surgery, then I made them change the pain meds they were giving me intravenously. (I had had a similar reaction to morphine, so once I remembered this I thought maybe it was the pain med. Found another med I was allergic to.) Once they changed the meds it was like night and day. Within 2 hrs all my nausea and vomiting stopped. Just wish I had figured it out earlier!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
