I had my surgery the 7th of August. Yesterday after taking 4 Tylenol 3's, I began to have headaches, Nausea, heart palpitations, shortness of breath and I felt my lungs were closing. I went to the closest emerge last night and the doctor concluded nothing, maybe just stress related. He took an ECG, blood work and an x-ray and concluded nothing. I went home prayed to God I wasn't going to die and fell asleep. This morning I woke up and the headache was gone and the pain was a little less. Afternoon came and I started to feel same symptoms again- but more nauseous! ( I have not taken T3's again) so I went to the pharmacy and grabbed Gravol, hope it works! Has anyone else felt like this just after surgery?

I get the headaches and heart palpitations and shortness of breath when I am starting to get dehydrated and my sinuses are acting up. So how are you feeling now?

I have been plagued with nausea and my surgery was also on the 7th. I also had a headache to beat the band the past couple days but didn't take things for it because I was afraid how all that medicine would sit in my empty stomach. On the plus side, I feel much better today, no nausea. I have sipped Water all day long and even had a little Tomato Soup. I hope tomorrow will be better for you but I'd slow down on the pills. If I took 2 tylenol 3's I'd be sick and you took 4. Feel better soon!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
