3 days post op is this normal?

I had my surgery wed April 9 .I dont have any pain but the nausea is horrible. Everything I sip I wanna throw it up. I have to take the anti nausea meds to keep anything down. Without that it comes back up. Im having a hard time getting my fluids in. Anyone else have that problem?

Hang in there, it does get better. I took nausea meds too, but only for a week and was better. I didn't have trouble drinking fluids but it did make me get an upset stomach

Yep..had the same issue. Just do the best u can. It will get better overtime.

Don't worry too much about how much protein u intake are the beginning..most people cannot get the recommended protein for a few weeks. Call your dr if you are concerned.

Thank u. I hope this passes soon. Every sip I can feel going in my stomach. Very uncomfortable

If the nausea is so bad you are regretting the surgery, something must be seriously wrong. Maybe you should go to the ER or call your doctor. Good luck and get some answers.

I had my surgery 4/9 they put sometime of nausea patch behind my ear and gave me nausea meds in my iv and sent me home with nausea meds...i have not been nauseated or throwing up...i have no appetite!! One of my 5 incisions hurt! I sip every 30 min and sleep mist of the time

I started taking the nausea meds first thing when I wake up before anything and that seems to help. Slept pretty good last night. Hopeful this is gonna b a good day

Is it normal to feel like really bloated ? Like my belly is so round as if I was preg . I had my surgery on Monday and now today I'm having prob with my chest slight amount of pain but idk what to do cuz if it's gas I walk around and take something but to look at my belly is really weird.

Yea idk. It probably wouldnt hurt to just throw your surgeon a call if it persists. Mine is swollen too but im thinking it just still healing.
