Just attempted to drink protein shake and got so. Sick I was terrified of vomiting. I can't finds zofran and still 10 days from having a BM if I can't get any protein in im gonna never lose. Tonight sucks!!!

Be sure it's not dairy based. Milk really hurts tummy. I've been drinking EAS carb control strawberry flavor. I've done ok. Take it very slow. It should take like an hour to hour and a half to drink a shake. Hope u get better.

Also I barfed for two days after surgery. If u barf just hold ur left side tight and it's not so bad. Barf in a bag so u don't have to bend over.

Do u like chocolate milk? If so I have the perfect shake for u I lovvvvveeee it but u have to like chocolate milk.

10 days since a BM? Even when we had my grandma on liquids she would still have bm's, obviously very small. After 3 days they said it becomes toxic and builds up leaking into the blood stream if I remember correctly. Was the Dr. worried about it being 10 days?

Didn't you just get out of the hospital 2 days ago? Don't worry about Protein shakes for now. Stick with Clear Liquids till you body & tummy have time to adjust. You WILL lose weight down the road. Right now your priority is to heal and adjust to your new tummy.

Have you taken any stool softners? I really, really like Miralax. I just take about a teaspoon a day in 4oz of Water a day and it keeps me pretty regular. You will need to take the normal dosage of any stool softener to get going. That's IF you feel like you need to go. You may not because you haven't had much intake.

Take things day by day. You really don't want to get dehydrated or you will keep being nauseous.

Gentle hugs!!

Try Visalus. Mixes with anything and taste great!

I did just get out due to pnemonia and blood clot... Now its been 10 days and the protein is going to be put on back burner. I feel like junk I am going to go to Walgreens tomorrow to buy stuff to fix problem and I emailed surgeon begging for zofran rx to replace my missing one.

Zofran is a seratonin blocker and may be contributing to your poor mood ,constipation and even get this, nausea. Perhaps your doc can give you something different to try. I was reading something today that said Appx 50% of scrips written in USA were ineffective at treating what they were written for. Guess that's why they call it medical practice!
