Terribly nauseated at the two week mark



Recommended Posts

I'm just wondering if anyone developed extreme nausea two weeks into the liquid diet.< /p>

I have felt so good up until today. Now I feel wiped out and so weak. I'm doing well getting in my fluids, but today, I'm not doing well at all. The Protein Shakes taste gross and I can't get any Water down, I've tried the zofran, didn't help. I have some promethazine, I'm going to try that. No matter what I do my heart feels like it is pounding so fast. Thanks for listening. I'm not a complainer at all, I was just wondering if anyone else experienced these symptoms.

Starting weight: 269

Pre op weight: 241

Weight after pre-op: 234

Post op weight, when I got home 247

Weight after two weeks: 231

I had the same thing happen to me at my 2 weeks they told my I was nauseous because I was dehydrated.
I ended up in the hospital and because I wasn’t eating my sugar and blood pressure dropped and my potassium was low while I was there but while I was there I hit my three week mark and was able to eat some eggs while I was in the hospital and that was the best thing ever right after I ate the eggs I started to feel better.
I would say keep taking the promethazine and Zofran so you can keep drinking and not get dehydrated and if your like me soon as you can eat real good you start feeling better I think it was just my body’s way of saying no more Soup haha

Thank you both for your response! My sister brought over a drink called Body Armor lite super drink. It has 20'calories and lots of electrolytes and it has coconut Water in it. It's all natural with 200% of the b Vitamins. It's really good! I sure don't want to go to the hospital! I will drink this along with water and hot tea in between time. I was super dizzy. Every time I would get out of bed my dog would go crazy until I got back in. I think my dog sensed that I wasn't feeling well! I think you are both absolutely right, the dreaded dehydration. Thanks again!!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
