Maybe there is something else that can help that, you might try calling your NUT. I think that you may also find that you can use pepto or . I don't know but ask the NUT what the equivelant is for wls patients. Also I have had ideas myself for improving digestion post op but still unsure about them for now and pre op.

You are six weeks out and should be starting to feel noticably better. I think you need to be checked out again, seriously.

Have you tried eliminating dairy? I was extremely nauseas and hospitalized for a week 3 wks post op. Even the IV meds didn't work...took dairy out of my diet and was better within 24 hrs. I tried sour cream today, just a little, and have been nauseas most of the day. It sux something fierce but I feel a lot better. Hope you feel better!

I no longer do dairy, I just don't know what the problem is...I went for my post op yesterday and she prescribed the dissolvable nauseas medicine and can't take it...I am starting to get really down at this point

Push your dr to prescribe you diferent anti-nausea medications until you find the one that works for you, if nothing works ask for a upper GI to see if everything it's functioning right with your new stomach. BUG you doctor until you find relieve!

Zofran, favorite anti nausea medicine... have they tried this one? Also there is a patch you can put behind your ear instead of having to swallow. This far out you should, like the other posters have suggested, should be feeling better not worse. Careful with dehydration if you are nauseated and not drinking enough. Push your doc for a solution/investigation of your symptoms. Best of luck, a yucky stomach sucks! Sorry

Are you taking any B Vitamins? If your thiamine is low which most WLS patients are post op, then you will be nauseas. They gave me an injection of it, but you can buy it OTC too. If I remember correctly its B-1. Just trying to think of other things that might help. Praying for ya!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
