  • You may need a PPI (proton pump inhibitor) to reduce the acids in your stomach. Something over the counter like Omeprazole (Prilosec). I took that every day for like 6 months. Excess acid can cause

I'm dealing with the same thing but I'm only 3 days out. No one seems to understand my feeling sick all the time. I just want yo lay around it sucks

I am going through this as well. My surgery was October 15. I did fine for a couple weeks then all of a sudden everything made me sick. Just the smell of food or coffee in my office had me nauseous. I called my Nutritionist, she asked if I had changed anything besides her food advancement, I had stopped taking my esophageal spasms meds; along with pain meds. She said that I needed to keep taking the spasm meds while I introduce food. It's like a whole new plumbing system. It helped some, I can handle smells and food a little better. But still always feel just a little off. Good luck. I sure hope this subsides quickly.

Excess acid can cause all sorts of stomach upset - nausea, feelings of hunger.

I got Prilosec but it says only take it for 14 days at a time and not less than four months apart. How were you able to take it everyday for so long?

I was told to go buy it (Omeprazole) the over the counter and take it once daily because I was having acid reflux and felt nausous. I got it at Target, but saw it also at Walgreens and the like. I kept taking it until my 6 month appointment and they told me to try coming off it at that point, and I did then with no issues.
