I'm one day post op for the sleeve. Was sleeved yesterday morning. Was fine last night and this morning until I took off my anti-nausea sticker and had my X-ray done with barium. Felt nauseous after drinking the barium. A couple times I felt like I needed to throw up: not really nauseous, just had the sudden intense feeling of my mouth watering and needing to find a bucket. This happened again after I went for a walk, and this time I actually dry heaved.

All my nurses say this is normal, as my body just went through a major change. I'm just hoping someone else has had a similar experience and can calm my nerves? I was converted from band to sleeve yesterday and all I keep thinking about is how with the band you DON'T throw up because of how dangerous it can be.

I had diarrhea for at least 10 days. Today I am constipated. I need those sugar-free gummy bears they sell on Amazon! LOL! (if you don't get this joke, look up the reviews. HILARIOUS!)

Those will surely do the trick! Haha maybe a little TOO well! I'm feeling good today, getting released in a little bit

I couldn't keep anything down for 5 days post surgery. The doc gave me a liquid antacid because I couldn't keep down the crushed pill. Problem solved but it took several days of wondering if I'd ever be able to drink again. I was so thirsty! No problems with nausea now at 8 weeks out.

Yes, first day post op I couldn't get the sips in due to this gagging, over salivation state of nausea that I would go through. Horrible feeling. 2nd day it didn't happen at all and I feel I can actually get the fluids in.

It should pass soon.

Oh, forgot to mention that switching from cold to warm fluids helped me a lot too. The warm just seemed to go down easier and provoke less violent reactions.
