I am 3 days post op and cannot keep anything down. Did great in the hospital but came home and have been puking.

I spoke with the hospital today and they said to make sure that I am taking the anti nausea meds.

Will this get better, when. I am scared.

Well if you can't keep anything down including meds, i think you might want to contact your team again. They didn't release me until I was able to tolerate liquids. I'm assuming you're fast on your way to dehydration, which means you'll have to go back to the hospital anyway. I threw up almost the entire time in the hospital and threw up once at home, so I've been tolerating things well since (17 days post).

Always check with your doctor of course! I do remember feeling nauseous but it went away as soon as I stopped taking the pain meds. I didin't really need the pain meds anyway. But your mileage may vary and as I said, only your doctor/nurse can really advise you on this.

I agree that you need to call your doctor, and really just wanted to comment to wish you well. I still have to take nausea meds at night sometimes. I hope you get better asap!

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

      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!
