I really need some advice guys !

I'm 4 days post op and at this point I still can not keep ANYTHING down no matter how many nausea pills I take or ant-acid pills (bith barely go down). I am now at the point of shaking, sleeping only an hour at a time and I bent down to grab my phone and I fell over. Is this normal, has anyone else felt like this a few days post op? The Dr's office told me to suck sf popsicles those help I'm seriously wanting to just turn myself into the ER and I am really wishing I had never done this stupid surgery. Help please I feel so alone and out of my own body

Oh I know what you're feeling!!!! I am 10 days out. At 4 days I was sure I had made the worst decision of my life. It WILL get better!!!!

However, if you really feel you need to go to the ER....GO. You could be dehydrated. My doctor told me if I felt I needed to go, I should go. He said, "that's what they're there for. Who cares if you end up being fine, at least you'll know for sure. I'll pray for you!

Hang in there, honey, it does get better - promise.

I came to the conclusion, in the very early days, that anything down my throat was good.

Consequently and for the first two weeks, i didn't worry about whether something was 'sugar free' or 'fat free' or not.

I just ingested what I could.

If you need some energy, try adding some gatorade (not the sugar free stuff) to some Water and sip on that. It'll perk you up no end.

It will get better - you just have to get through the first few weeks.

Hold tight

Please call your surgeon, you may need a stronger anti nausea medication and/or IV fluids. I had terrible nausea the first 2 days home, called my surgeon & he called in a script for dissolvable Zofran. Those pills were a lifesaver!

Zofran is what I'm on too. I also drink Gatorade. Give yourself time to heal. Sit in a comfy chair and suck you Popsicles and sip Gatorade.

Call your doctor's office again someone is on call over the weekend. Did you tell them that you fell over when you reached for the phone or did this happen after? You may have lost too many fluids and need some through IV.

I'm 3 days out and the Zofran has been a big help. I can't stand Gatorade, but I have taken G2 mixed with Water...and have instantly felt better. I'm doing good on fluids, but not yet up to what I should be at. Hope you feel better soon and like someone else said, don't hesitate to go to the ER, that's what they are there for

you are dehydrated and have low blood sugar, which leads to more nausea and vomiting. you need some fluids, go to the ER!

Try the isolate grape flavor. It tastes like gateraid and helps with the nauseous feeling.

I agree, you are probably dehydrated at this point. An ER trip may not be a bad idea. And if you end up being fine, then that's great. Better to go and not need it and to need it and not go. Praying for you.

And hang in there, it will get better. Each day.

^{My first five days felt like an out of body experience.}

^{I didn't shower or brush my teeth and threw up every time I drank something. I was barely able to drag my butt out of bed to use the bathroom. Then, on day six I started feeling better and now it's getting easier each day. I'm only 12 days out so my thoughts and prayers are with you. Please keep us posted on your progress.}

I felt like that day 2 because I felt so crappy felt better once I got home

Hope you ladies feel better...I actually got out the house today and eel great for the most part

Hope you are feeling better Sweetie. Tomorrow I will be 5 Weeks out. Last week wad the first time I felt half way normal. I had a hernia fixed at the same time as my sleeve and it had been a battle with it. Like you, I couldn't eat or drink for Weeks. The Dr says it will still take time to heal, but I started on actual food this weekend- lean ground beef and chicken. I feel 10x better. I'm still not getting in all my water so that's my next step. I promise it does get better. It took me awhile to believe that, but it does. Just push threw and in a few Weeks it will be all better. Good luck!

ER and electrolytes may be a good course of action, I think this is not normal. I am 5 days out and have been fantastic since my small vomiting spell right after surgery for the first few hours. Energy is good and I am doing all kinds of things.
