If you have nausea this could help



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, I've been nauseous for the past week. I'll be 6 weeks post-op in 2 days. I called the nurse so we can try to figure out what was causing the nausea. At first, I thought it was my Vitamins, so the nurse told me to

stop them and see if the nausea would go away. It didn't. It always started after lunch and got worse throughout

the day. The worst was in the evening. I kept feeling like I was about to throw up, but only saliva would come

out (sorry for being so gross!). At the end of the worst episode, I felt something like heartburn. So, the next

day, I tried Tums, lunch time and supper time and my nausea got better. The day after that, I took my regular

antacid pill in the morning and also took one before supper and no nausea at all. I called the nurse today to let

her know I thought it was acid reflux so we are still testing it out, but it looks like that's what it is. So

heartburn is not always a side effect because I didn't have that, I just had bad nausea and the salivating. I feel

much better now and wanted to share in case someone else was going through this and didn't know what was causing

the nausea. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the tip. Acid reflux does some very strange things to people, and it can effect us all in varying ways.

      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! 😞
