Nausea & Vomiting - 9 Days PostOp



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone! I've been having issues with vomiting for the last 3 days. Any advice or experiences would be helpful...

I've not been able to hold down ANYTHING. No cold or hot liquids, Protein shakes, Water, Powerade, etc. etc. Even after two small sips, it will come up after 20 mins. Seems like its not getting to my new stomach. As if it just gets stuck in my esophagus.

My surgeon sent me to the ER yesterday for treatment of nausea, for some IV fluids and a CAT Scan. I felt a little better. But, I vomited again 10 mins after coming home, and two more times this morning after sipping on apple juice. The hospital sent me home with Prevacid and Zofran prescriptions. I'll be picking them up this afternoon. I hope I can keep them down.

Any help?? :-)

My PPIs certainly helped with nausea but I still get it. I would say, be sure to get your liquids in. If you can't keep down the Protein right now, just focus on the liquids.

Then, once you get your liquids under control try a few different Proteins. To be honest, I still can't do Protein. So, I feel your pain with that. Hopefully you'll find one that works for you.

Thank you all for the replies. I'm back in the ER after 2 days. They're going to admit me for dehydration due to the vomiting, high sodium levels and testing.

Keep me in your prayers please!! :-)

Hi!! I'm still in the hospital! I'm doing much better though. Trying to keep down liquids w/o vomiting. I found out today that "She" doesn't like coffee, along with a few other things. Lol

I will be discharged once I'm able to hold down oral meds! So, hopefully today or tmrw. ;-)

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
