Had Surgery June 25 Pain

I had my sleeve done this monday and I just stopped dry heaving today. Between the heaving and the gas I was really second guessing myself but I know there is no turning back. This site is wonderful

    Sorry you feel sick. I can't believe they didnt give you something while in the hospital. They kept my IV loaded with anti-nausea meds, so i didn't feel sick at all.

Oh, no! Feel better. Did they give you any nausea medicine? Are you using GasX? You poor thing. I'm sorry you've had such a tough time.

While in the hosptial I was given prilosec for gas and nausea. My surgeon prescribed omeprazole 20 mg the generic for prilosec and I take this twice daily. Contact your doctor and ask for a prescription for nausea and gas cause you will need daily.

How are you feeling now?

I had surgery June 25th as well. I used Gas X strips while in hospital and now am using duel action acid controller complete. You can get it at Walmart or Target for about $10. Both things I mentioned have been approved by the bariatric nurse and surgeon, feel better soon.

I also had mine on Monday.. in alot of pain with you. Alot of Burping gas. (sorry tmi) trying to do the pain meds as often as i could. I haven't had alot of nausea but some. 'I was given prilosec to take but it is so hard to crush and down. Hope you feel better soon.

i find that prilosec capsules work best for me

Just curious, did you have a drain? I'm wondering if there is a connection to nausea and not having a drain to get blood out of your stomach.

I had no nausea and no drain.

I do have a drain and it will come out Monday with my first Post op Visit. It is constantly draining.

I had a drain and no nausea. Also had an IV for 47 hrs, and they kept it pumped with meds. I keep reading about those who hurt so bad, and are so sick. I feel terrible for them! I believe in the power of prayer, worked for me.
