Nausea?

Hey everyone! I had my sleeve surgery yesterday at noon. I was discharged from the hospital today at two. I'm able to take small sips of water and tiny bits of chicken broth. Anything else (jello, Gatorade 0, vitamin water 0) makes me really nauseous. I haven't thrown up yet though. Won't that make my stomach open up?? I'm stressing.

Don't drink it cold, cold really irritated my sleeve at first

So what about throwing up? Have any of you thrown up?

I was in the hospital for three nights. Days 2 and 3 I vomited several times (it's why I stayed an extra night). Stomach did not open up, but one thing I wish I'd been told... IF you vomit shortly after surgery, expect to vomit blood. It's not fresh, but rather that left in your tummy from the procedure. It only happened the first time, but it freaked me out, fearing I'd split the staples open!

After discharge, all was fine until the last week or so. Now three months out, I've vomited three times in the past week. Think my sleeve just isn't happy with some of my choices.

I was just sleeved on 3-6 stayed in hospital two nights due to nausea and vomiting. It's gone now, thank god. Dr said it was normal. The issue I had once released yesterday is dark brown diarrhea. Kinda scares me. Have u had that?

Yes, I believe that's also normal. I didn't have a bowel movement until 5 days post-op (thank GOD, because I was dreading the thought of having to ask anyone to wipe my tush!), and it was definitely diarrhea. Since all you should be taking in are liquids, that's all there is to come out.
