Nausea after a fill?

reredc · October 26, 2006

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.
