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.

Call your doctor. They will recommend something for sure.

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. ;-)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
