Nausea varies based on the patient. It is also increased by the pain medications they give you. So it is hard to say how long it will last, but your doctor should give you some antinausea medicine like Zofran.

Aww, hope you feel better soon. Ask them to give you something for nausea. I never vomited, but I was very nauseous after surgery because they kept giving me Vicodin, once I stopped taking it I was fine, I just used Lortab when I got home for pain every night to help me sleep.< /p>

I got sleeved yesterday.

I am so nauseated and need advice. I throw up Water, broth, tea, everything..

I feel horrible

How long does this last?

I had my sleeve done last Friday and I had the same problem. I found that warm liquid went down a lot better than cold liquids. Fully sitting up and drinking really slow helped me a lot.

Oh, I had THE WORST EVER nausea post op. The only thing that worked was compazine suppositories. Lasted two full weeks! My doc said it was a post op potential but would be temporary.

I'm so sorry, that really really stinks :(

My arms look sunburned and ache. I called doctor. They think it's allergic reaction to nausea meds.

I got up and showered and feel better. Still can't hold anything down. Starting to get hungry..

:(

But glad the pain is letting up and I'm just looking at the future and all this w b worth it.

If it doesn't let up, go on in to urgent care. You need to monitor what you can keep down so you don't get dehydrated. Severe nausea and other symptoms, fever, feeling weak and faint are signs you need medical care. The signs of a leak begin in a very similar way...so be cautious. Not trying to scare you, but this surgery does carry risks, so listen to your body and if you get worse, just get yourself to the doctor.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
