Need help-yesterday was drinking fine, today can barely sip!

I'm just miserable today....nauseated and can barely sip. I've felt like I could throw up at any minute all day long. I'm 8 days post op and was doing fine just yesterday!

I was able to sip on protein drinks, sip creamed soup, and eat a few bites of pudding. I have felt so sick since I woke up this morning.

I already had to have IV fluids early on, so do not want to get dehydrated. I'm sucking on crushed ice at the moment since sipping is so difficult. :(

Really praying for some advice.....miserable day!

Sorry hunny, I'm not exactly and expert- I'm only 4 days out, but just wanted to say hang in there and if its not any better in a day or so maybe just give your doc a call? I'll have my fingers crossed for u

I was sleeved may 7 and still experiencing extreme nausea, diarrhea and sometimes vomiting. I'm on the puréed foods and I'm certainly hoping it gets better. I basically can't leave the house! I feel urgh!

I'm actually back to feeling good today. I have NO IDEA why I felt so horrible yesterday. I was totally miserable the entire day....vey nauseated, had the chills, dizzy and felt so faint. I could hardly walk to the bathroom. My husband checked my blood pressure, pulse, and temp all throughout the day and night, and was pushing me to sip every 15 minutes. I know he was very concerned (he's a paramedic, so doesn't easily worry since he's seen and done it all). He was on the phone with my doc a couple of times, so am thankful that his knowledge kept me from a trip to the ER.

Today is a new day! I've went to get my nails done this morning and we are doing to going to go to movies tonight if I'm still feeling good.

What a difference a day makes!

You will have good days and bad days like that. I don't know why. I was sleeved April 15th. Six weeks out and I go three-4 days and then have 1-2 really bad days for no reason at all. It must be our bodies still healing.

R u on a ppi...if i forget mine I feel awful like this

No I'm on Nexium which helps with acid reflux. What's PPI?

I'm on Dexilant.

Be careful! Don't be afraid to call your doctor either. I'm glad you are feeling better! I was told by my NUT that one day I will tolerate it and the next day my body will say no more. If you can't tolerate anything aim for liquid to stay hydrated . ... maybe try warm herbal tea?
