I was lucky and had no pain, but the nausea about took me down. I was nauseated for about 3 days at home. Once I was able to start forcing Water down it made it a lot better. There is blood and bile in there and no food, so the combo hits some people really hard. Sip water continually and you will start to feel better. Hang in there- it does get better!

Pop sickles were my hero. The outshine pop sickles, so many varieties

when my nausea was bad at first I think I was eating 3-5 pop sickles a day

They really did smooth my stomach, would basically cure the nausea and would make my stomach pain go away- I'm 3 months post and I still eat a pop sickle if my stomach hurts, works every time

Worked for me !! Hope it helps you too

It took me a week post op for the pain to be tolerable. When I wore a binder that helped a ton with pain. I took anti-nausea meds that helped some. Hang in there and walk and rest, get your fluids in. You got this!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
