Hi All,

I am beginning week 5 post-op. I had my first post op visit with the surgeon last week (June 17) and I lost 33 lbs by the end of week 4. However since Thursday, 5 days ago, I've been feeling very nauseous when I eat or drink ANYTHING, including a few sips of water. I have not introduced anything new to my diet. Has anyone else experienced this?

I haven't. Are you also experiencing any reflux?

Are you getting enough Fluid? That in itself will cause your symptoms.

You might call your doc and let him know, they can prescribe something for nausea which will help.

Don't let yourself get dehydrated.

I had the gastric bypass rather than the sleeve to eliminate reflux, as I have lesions on my esophagus due to reflux.

As for getting enough fluids, I try to drink Water all day long, however even sipping water causes nausea. It's the strangest thing. I was fine for weeks, then suddenly nauseous all the time.

Are u taking Gallbladder medication? It made me sick had to stop it. Eating to fast, not chewing food enough all causes nausea. Try taking antacids I got some from my dr

No, I'm not on any gallbladder meds and I do try to chew my food quite a bit. I also try to take breaks in between bites. Not sure what the cause is. I was wondering if it could perhaps BE my gallbladder?

I had similar symptoms around the same time as you, my surgeon prescribed a pill, I will try to remember the name... Used it for about a week or so... And have never felt nausea after that.

Hi, I am 15 weeks post op and I am on Nexium 2x a day.

Prior to the gastric bypass my reflux was very bad. I was hoping it would be gone after the surgery but unfortunately I still have it, though not strong has before.

God willing it will get better where I don't need the Nexium anymore.

Will tell you I don't regret the decision of having the surgery!

Hope you feel better soon! Definitely call the doctor.

Blessings....

I also took the Zofran pill for a few days for the neaseous feelings I had.
