When will nausea die down



Recommended Posts

I'm on day three post op and nausea is whipping me!! Any ideas on how long this normally lasts ? I think I could deal with pain better than this. Ugh

Some people say the pain meds cause it, are you taking any? They also say that you should be taking something for reflux. I'm still pre op until March 18th.

I do not want to discourage you or be a downer by any means so I am telling you this so you will have hope.....I am 8 weeks post op. I spent first 7 weekd sick with nausea...I took my nausea med and my prilosec. I even ended up in hospital with dehydration. I literally thought I had died...made biggest mistake of my life....cried daily....EVERYONE kept saying it gets better...I had so many doubts. My doc finally put me on a steroid to reduce swelling and helps with nausea. I dont know if it was that or my body finally healed but I have had 9 straight days feeling awesome....nausea gone!!! Again please dont think you are destined for 7 weeks of hell as I called it but just know I promise....IT DOES GET BETTER!!!! Hang in there.....

I know exactly what you are talking about I had surgery on jan 28 and have been miserable every since, I am currently in the hospital for dehydration and I'm getting so depressed I'm praying the docs will come up with something soon to help with the throwing up. I need to feel better ;-(

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
