I was sleeved 5/28 and am really struggling. I had my Lapband taken out at the time of procedure. I am working on Fluid intake and walking as much as I can but I have constant nausea. I'm on clear fluids until Tuesday and I'm hoping after then I will be able to get stronger every day. Right now the pain is mostly gone but I am in severe nausea and that is almost worse. Is Dramimine ok to take? Repeated calls to my physician went unanswered and unreturned.

I was sleeved on 5/28. Still have issues getting Water and Protein down.

No more nausea. Except for certain smells make me feel yucky

I was sleeved 5/28 and start soft foods on tuesday. Did they prescribe you any anti nausea meds? I came home with some that would need to be crushed but haven't felt like taking them.

I'm just now able to take in more fluids I'm shooting for my 11oz Protein drink and about 40oz of Water.

My sleeve was on 5/23 and I have moved on to soft food already. It's going well, but I have had some bumps in the road. The chewable Vitamins were making me sick, moved on to liquids. I couldn't tolerate the Bariatric Advantage shakes either, switched to Pure Protein and those are better for me.

Talk to your Doc or the nutritionist at their office, they can give you some options. If they don't return calls, keep calling or just show up at their office - they should be providing follow up care for you!

I was sleeved 5/28 but no issues with nausea. Dramamine is probably NOT okay to take but there is a drug people here have taken for it. I recommend starting another thread with a title of "Please help with nausea"or something like that and I think that will get you more attention than this thread.

Your doctor took responsibility for aftercare by doing this surgery, don't hesitate to keep nagging them until they respond.

I was sleeved on 5/28 and I am getting all my fluids 3 Protein Shakes and my Water. I am however very sore, tired and weak feeling. My band had to be bigger ( I can hold 3 oz instead of 2) due to scar tissue from my band remove 2 years ago. Nausea? My dr gave me zig ran tablets that melt in your tongue.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
