Nausea

I am 5 days post op and suffering from severe nausea and bouts of vomitting. I have attributed it to the protein shakes, so I switched to protein drinks. Nausea persists. Anyone else have this issue?

    Are you drinking to much at one time? That would be my guess.

  • Sip slow and you have to learn the difference between full and gas ..stop then go back It's a journey I just had my surgery on August 5, my problem now is the head hunger.

  • I'd recommend you call your surgeons. Did they give you a PPI like Prilosec? They can also prescribe anti-nausea meds that might help.

I was told not to drink any seltzer and sparkle water because it bloats you and make you nauseous

Try smart water it has electrolytes and other minerals in it .

Well had first appt today. Finally got some Zofran. They did move me to pureed foods. But if I can't tolerate, then back to liquids I go. NUT is baffled as to the protein intolerance. She reluctantly switched me to a protein blend. She thinks I may have an intolerance to the whey isolate. Fingers crossed this is the beginning of good days ahead.

I can certainly relate. I was sleeved on 7/28 and the nausea is getting worse. I'm in desperate need for some relief. My doctor just continue to say it will get better with time. I'm just concerned that it may be something more serious.

Good luck and hopefully you're feeling better soon.

I have lots of nauseas I had surgery monday!!

Sorry to hear that. My nausea has finally subsided. It seemed once I was moved to puree I did so much better. Good luck and feel better.

Thank you!!

I know how you feel. It will get better, so try to stay positive. I was very depressed, had buyers remorse and thought this was how it was going to be forever. But I'm happy to say it's not.
