Feel Like Throwing Up



Recommended Posts

Surgery was yesterday , all morning I've felt like throwing up. Can't even drink my chicken broth. This is such a bummer, if I didn't feel this way, everything would be great. Anyone experience this?

The day after my surgery I tried to drink and cranberry juice and it sucked. All I did was sip Water all day and sleep. Didn't worry about foods at all. I took it easy the first week. Then I started adding Protein Drinks. Take it easy it is majorally important to get your water in by sipping, sipping, and more sipping. :)

Suck on ice chips and don't try to drink any broth for a couple of days. Nausea will go away. It's way too soon to think about broth.

I personally could not

Tolerate Water at all. I could I ly do y y sips of broth. Do u have an anti nausea medicine? It didn't really help meuch but it may help u. Day four is better than day three so hang in there!!

Are you still in the hospital. If so they should be giving you an anti-nauseant. I had two days in the hospital and it went fine, I had constant medicine and no issues at all. You should contact your surgeon for some anti nausea meds so you can feel better. But keep trying to sip your Water as dehydration can also cause nausea, sip, sip, sip is very important.

It will pass! Be patient. So many good wonderful things to come. Could be reaction to anesthesia and other things. You've just had MAJOR surgery!

You will have many throwing up experiences along the way until you learn to eat again. It just happens.

Congrats on your surgery and your journey to a fitter, thinner you!

One Love.

I stopped all pain meds and magic I started feeling better. And the pain wasnt bad enough to need something so strong anyway.

I was only able to have ice chips the day after surgery and i didn't even want that because I did not have and appetite. I am a week and some days out and still on clear liquid. I am sure that your symptoms will subside soon.

I should also have said yes I was on anti nausea and a patch for nausea and neither worked. I had to get off the pain meds because they were upsetting my stomach.

I had that problem and requested they take me off the narcotics soon as they did they gave me Toradol and I was able sip everything my surgeon prescribed.

I threw up for two days and could basically drink nothing. My surgeon told me that ice chips and ice were actually pretty hard to digest because there are no enzymes in it to help your stomach break it down. He suggested Decaf. tea as the best thing to drink. When I got home, I could only manage sugar free popsicles for a few days. A week later I was fine, drinking Protein etc. Water still doesn't sit as well as decaf. tea. I especially liked Tazo Orange Herbal tea. Good luck! It is worth it.

Thanks for the feedback. Yes , I'm still in the hospital getting meds for nausea doesn't seem to be helping. Trying to eat Jello & ice chips, which isn't easy to swallow. I'm walking around more & feel that is working with the gas. Thanks everyone , I know it will all be worth it :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
