Feeling Sick

[LilBoo007 491]

So I am almost 7 weeks post op and for the last 3-4 days I have felt soo sick. It starts in the morning and its hard to eat or drink because I feel like I'm going to throw up. I have not actually thrown up but I feel on the verge of doing it almost all day long. I never felt sick at all after surgery except 2 times I dumped... Anyone have a clue what's going on??!

Any chance you're pregnant ?

God I hope not!! I had a period 7 days ago and it lasted 3 days. So I assume I'm not. Plus I only had sex 2 times last cycle and we used condoms.

Are you getting at least 64 oz of Water? I ask because I was nauseated 24/7. I had a bad taste in my mouth which caused everything to taste nasty including water. My urine had a bad odor sorry If TMI). I called my surgeon's office, & I was told I was dehydrated.

Hey babygirl, I am drinking between 50-60 oz a day but I believe it's my Bariatric Advantage multi vitamins... When I don't take them I'm fine but when I do I feel sick for hours... Then it's time to take them again and sick for hours!!! I am taking Flinstones complete for now. The only thing about those is they don't have selenium which I was supposed to have in my multi., so until I can get in touch with the nut I'm going to take them anyway!

I'm so excited to read this...the last few days I have felt awful. Just in general. I thought it was Constipation, but I realized last night that isn't the case. Today I realized that in the process of putting my house on the market I have forgotten to take my medicines the last couple of days. I am back on track today, so I hoping the feeling will subside. It is just very frustrating to feel "bad" and not really know why. I keep trying to tell myself that while my outsides are "healed" I still put my body through a major change and everything is not going to be "ok" all the time. But I get really irritated at times.

You make me feel better! Thank you.

My family keeps yelling at me, and all i do is cry b/c they dont know how i feel.. I dont know what to do!

I don't want to alarm u guys but I felt nauseous everyday for 4 months. It did eventually go away but it was seriously all day long everyday and no pills helped. Believe it or not skim milk seemed to help a little tiny bit but for the most part I just suffered. My surgeon said that some people are just nauseous and it can last up to a year. Good luck to u.

I thought it was just me feeling like this. I'm 7 weeks post op and nauseous every stinking day! My zofran doesn't help at all. I hope mine doesn't last a year! :/

Me too ladies... My doc gave me carafate. I drink it one hour b 4 I eat and 2-3 after I eat it has really helped me because I stopped eating since it was making me sick. It was hard the first week, but now I'm able to eat.

Best wishes to you all
