Nausea - when will it go away?



Recommended Posts

I am 16 days post RNY. I am doing well, but having severe nausea every few days. I'm scheduled to return to work Monday, but I worry about feeling this ill. Does the nausea go away, or will I continue to have these bad episodes?

RNY 6/27/17

Female, Height: 5'4"

Highest Weight: 280

Surgery Weight: 218

Current Weight: 205

Goal Weight: 150

Me too. I had to get a nausea shot and more nausea pills to take.

You might need medication for a short term to stop the nausea. From my experience I was very nauseated the first 3 days and had to go on medication and it cleared up in a day. After that no issue just occasional Nausea. I find peppermint tea a big help.

I am now 28 days post-op and the nausea is worse. I have been re-admitted twice and DON'T want that to happen again if I can help it! I have been put back on liquids so hopefully that helps. The nausea meds really don't work for me. I am battling discouragement.

So sorry to hear! Hopefully in a few days as your stomach calms down so will the nausea. I was on an IV for a day the Drs said they were bringing out the tough meds - had no idea what it was but stopped the nausea and then I took a pill daily for 3 months.

Try and get the Protein Shakes in I used Premier Protein ready made shakes. Don't rush solids.

I still have peppermint tea at times to help when queasy.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
