nausea at 2 months out? experts please chime in

I never had any nausea after my surgery until this past weekend. I get a sick to my stomach feeling that comes and goes on and off throughout the day, but heightened in the mornings/evenings. I know for a fact that im not pregnant. i havent tried any new foods....its not so bad that i feel like i want to vomit but def comes in waves.

I dont get the feeling after eating....in fact i only seem to feel it when I am NOT eating. if i eat a little something or have some coffee it goes away from a while. i get about 300 calories a day.

I am assuming you feel nauseous because you are not getting enough calories. I am 3 weeks out and eat between 500 and 700 calories a day. Are you eating regular meals with Snacks in between? No more than 2-3 hours between meals/snacks? Are you having some Protein before bed?

I am diabetic and sometimes feel nauseous when my blood sugar level drops too low. I hope you feel better soon!

I agree; it's probably that your blood sugar is too low and you don't consume enough calories! You aren't that far out from surgery either so your body has had a LOT of changes to go through....it's likely even MORE sensitive to blood sugar changes and having to pull "fuel" from your body rather than your food. Follow your nutritionist/MD about how many cals per day, but also be sure a lot of it is Protein and that it is well-spaced throughout your day/night. I get nauseated (but do NOT throw up) if I have too much sugar and/or too much fat and/or eat too much...in that case, you have to just ride it out and let it absorb before the nausea goes away. But, that is a good behavior modification trigger, because when you feel gross after over-indulging, it is a deterrent!!! If your nausea continues for very long, please see your MD to check everything out.
