Had mine today at 8am. Been throwing up alot other pain no. Me still in hd ward and can't wait for sip coz doctor told strict no fluid.

I threw up every hour on the hour and of course I'm that girl that when she throws up she also pees. It sucked! All I tasted was blood and bile for the whole week! Best of luck and keep us posted:)

Me too throw up and pee :)

Just curious if the ones who threw up had the patch? I thought it was supposed to help nausea! It worked for me and I didn't get a migraine either. Started to, but warned the nurse and she got the ok to infuse another med. it worked.

Had my sleeve on the 18th of April . I'm trying to do 3 protein shakes a day. Trying to drink slowly. Cheated and had 2 yogurts. Small stony fields yogurt . Also had the broth and a tablespoon of ramen noodles. My tummy just rumbles and makes crazy noises. I'm using a heating pad cause my left side feels a little sore. So do I continue protein shakes and clear liquids this week? Still have diarrhea , but only at night. I'm starting to think that the yogurt is giving me the diarrhea . I'll weigh in tomorrow .

I'm sorry that some people have nausea. I was given zofran and I never got sick. I hope everyone feels better!

My surgery was scheduled today for May 24! I. Excited and scared at the same time! But I'm ready (I think)!

I was given that 2 at 1st it mad me feel worse only cause the nurse pushed it through the iv so quick

Sorry to hear. I have nausea pills that the doc gave me to take proactively. Do you think maybe Prilosec or nexium would help? Fingers crossed for you!

Strongly recommend Nexium, Protonix, Prilosec, or something comparable for post-surgery.

Birdie, THREE protein shakes a day? THREE?!? How? I'm lucky to get one down over the course of a day. I balance them with cream soups made with double milk. Managing to meet my protein requirements that way.

My dr has me on full liquids for three weeks. Then, purée. Can't wait. I can have scrambled eggs on the purée diet!

I can only get about 4 ounces of protein a day. I am having a really hard time getting more than 4 grams if protein. Also in the hospital I was on so many different nausea meds at once. I had the patch, a shot, and something in my I.V. I stayed on all 3 for 3 days.

That's how I get my protein in 2 EVEN though my doc put me on soft meats now

Be sure not to take in to much protein if your not active enough for your body to burn it. If you are very active then that much is great. I'm back to walking 8 miles a day do I try to make sure I get 70-80g protein daily, also if you are not able to get that much down at once, blend a tablespoon of penut butter in it and that will add a boost to the protein

Had my surgery yesterday
