I'm 5 weeks out an my stomach feels awful all the time. It always feels gross. Kinda nauseous kinda hungery but no matter what I do it don't feel better. I do fine with Protein it's not easy but I get shakes down. Not doing well with other fluids. Not getting to much food nothing taste that good but keep trying. I just can't get past this yucky feeling in my stomach all the time. This normal???

I was going to say I felt that way at first. When I went to my follow up my surg who also is a gastroenterologist put me on nexium and ursodiol (to prevent issues with my gall bladder). Since then as long as I take the nexium I don't have that feeling. It was horrible.

Did your surgeon prescribe anything to help your stomach? Mine prescribed Omeprazole and I'm to take it before Breakfast for the first three months. I had my surgery at mayo Hospital. Here's what's in my Mayo book: "Some people develop a blockage at the opening of the stomach despite efforts to follow the dietary guidelines carefully. Common symptoms of a blockage are persistent nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. If you are closely following the diet guidelines and these symptoms continue longer than 2 days, contact your health care provider." My advice to you would be to contact your doctor's office. You don't want to take any chances.

It could be the spacing of your meds. I felt nauseous when I took my psych meds in the morning so I switched to night.

Have you been giving zofran or anything to help with nausea?

How are you doing with your psych meds? That's the thing I worry about most of all.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
