nausea

[jamiewilli 2]

I am about 6 weeks out was sleeved on 8/1/13, I am so nauseous all the time. I wake up nauseous, after I eat I feel really nauseous, and before I go to bed its terrible. My doctor gave me medicine for it but it makes me sleepy and I have 3 kids so I can't really take it except for at bed time. Does/has anyone else had this problem and if so what did you do?

Are you able to drink tea? There is a lemon/ginger tea that might help with the nausea.

I have zofran during the day and phenagren at night as needed. Are you taking acud reducers? Nexium with zantac really helps to keep the acid in check which helps the nausea a lot. Once I had stopped taking the acid reducers the nause became unbearable

Jamie, what medicine did they precribe that makes you tired?

My Dr. is sending a prescription to the pharmacy for nausea (I'm almost 6 weeks out) ...I'll be driving 7 hours Sat & Sun....can't afford to be sleepy

Sorry I couldn't add anything useful to the conversation.....good luck!

In addition to the lemon/ginger tea... Peppermint tea also helps with neasea, also Decaf.

Feel better and good luck.

Phenagran makes you sleepy. Thats why I take it at night because the nausea keeps me awake,l. Zofran is not sleep enducing. Im not sure what other ones are out there.

Thank you for that! They gave me Zofran, but it did nothing.....so I'm thinking it's an acid or heartburn problem......tried Pepcid over the weekend, and it helped tremendously

(not sure why Prilosec made it worse)
