Okay, so I'm six weeks out, the nausea (for the most part) had passed but now it's happening ALL day for the past couple of days...is this normal?? I have been living off of Zofran and/or Phenergan and I haven't really needed either since about 1-2 weeks out. Even water is making me nauseated.

I am experiencing exactly the same thing. I'm six weeks out today. I was nauseous weeks 2-4 then it got better, now sick again. It's been hard to get much down for past few days dye to nausea. So I'm interested in this thread as well. Thx!!

Hmmm...where's Laura when you need her?

Here I am to save the day!!!!!!! NOT! Ummm.... Not sure why if you were doing good that it changed so suddenly... The usually suspects would be a stricture but it could also be just part of the fun of healing. I never threw up but for the first two months I would get times where I just felt nauseous on certain days... See no help

Hey, hey now! they don't pay me enough around here to know everything....

I would call the doc tomorrow. It's probably nothing serious but anytime recovery goes backwards rather than forward, it's a food idea to ping them anyway. Sorry you're not feeling good

Are you eating healthily? Have you increased fat or sugar or carbs or something that your body's not liking maybe?

I pretty much eat the SAME diet daily...there are a few variations, but mostly the same stuff. I do know the PA told me that nausea could be gallbladder issues, BUT i'm not hurting at all. Yesterday and today, I have hardly been able to eat much of anything - between 300-500 calories and that is FORCING myself to eat.

Yeah time to call the doc for sure. Better be safe than sorry right?

I suppose...I don't like being the "difficult" patient:(

Difficult is that patient who doesn't call when she needs to, waits until she gets worse, and then bothers her doc on a Sunday by needing to be admitted

Hah, point taken, ma'am! I will call them tomorrow!

I am 5 months out and I have been nauseous for a few weeks now. No pain or other symptoms. Surgeon thinks gall bladder but ultrasound showed no stones. So now I am going for a HIDA scan (looking for sludge?).

Try eating something salty when nauseous -- it's the only thing that helps me. Salty broth, salt on eggs or potatoes, even cottage cheese. Try to avoid fat. I started eating potato chips, then popcorn -- both trigger foods for me so I had to give those up. Now I just live with the nausea until we figure out the problem.

Wouldn't it be kinda soon for me to have gallstones though?

If I skip my PPI or am more than a few hours off from when I normally take it my day is done for and I have heartburn that settles into nausea. I usually take one 20mg pill in the morning and on these days will take a second. Might be worth a try. My surgeons office said because of the progression of heartburn to nausea it is just how my body deals with the acid.
