Nausea after a fill?



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled for my first fill in two weeks. Post-op I had severe nausea and vomiting for 3 days and am wondering if I have more of the same in store for me after the fill. Has anyone else experienced this? The phenergan they gave me for post-op nausea was not helpful.

You may request a script for zofran - its much better then phenergan...

Very FEW of us have experienced nausea with a fill. Every now and then someone will say they had it - but not often!

Good luck!

I don't get nausea, but I do get tired followed by chills and fever. It doesn't start until about an hour after the fill and lasts for a few hours. I just plan my fill at the end of the day so I can go home and curl up on the couch for a few hours. Its over very fast and no other repercusions. Not very many have reported this side effect.

I had my first fill yesterday which was just two weeks after surgery. I felt (and still feel) so bad. I hurt like I have the flu and feel nauseaous. I thought it was because it was so soon after surgery but I am glad to see that this is not abnormal. I hope each fill gets better.

I just had my first fill yesterday too. It's been 6 weeks for me. I felt slight nausea this morning but I think it's becasue I was hungry. I have to do 48 hours of liquids after the fill. I've felt nothing else.

Within two hours of my first fill i felt like i had the flu and felt ill for two days - for me I think it was the nerves, process, the whole experience coupled with flying back to San Diego, traveling to Tijuana, and meeting up with my band sisters - just way too much excitement and aprehension. it's never happened since to that level but I do always feel a bit drained - i hate needles, etc. so it's always a bit taxing.

Just the idea of the needle going in alone makes me nauseous, but I do liquids for the next 24 hours and haven't had any actual nausea problems.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
