5 months out, nauseous for over a week



Recommended Posts

So, I figured by now I would have this whole eating thing under control but for the last week or so I seem to be nauseous 24 /7. Nothing I do seems to help... eating, not eating, Water, protein... On top of it all, I seem to be losing very slowly. . Any suggestions? I'm considering starting from scratch again and starting with a liquid diet because I can't seem to get all my Protein in and my hair is starting to fall out. I'm in desperate need of help because this is affecting my life negatively instead of being a positive change.

unfortunately hair loss..arrgghh..normal...lost a lot of mine, and I did EVERYTHING by the book and human guidance, still lost a lot of it. nausea. another unfortunate. I still feel it a lot of the time. I just had lunch, 4oz salmon & 10 steamed snowpeas..feeling sluggish. But I'd say if it persists like always call the Doc.

Someone with more experience than me might correct me but I think going back to the pouch test might be a good option for you.

Biotin has got a great reputation for helping those who fear losing their hair...I started mine prior to my surgery and take it last thing at night.

Good luck

1. Are you taking prilosec still or similar? Nausea can be too much acid in the stomach

2. You could ask your dr for an anti-nausea med, they will help.

3. Yes to liquids. When things get funky, go back to basics for a couple days. But any longer than that and you should be on the phone with your surgeon.

I was never put on prilosec, and I'm getting worried to the point were I will probably call on Monday to make an appointment. Thank you everyone for your help and advice!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
