5 Days Post-Surg.....where's the Nausea?



Recommended Posts

Am I alone in this? I have not experienced ANY nausea. Not since waking up in the recovery room on Tuesday...nada..not one bit. No urge to puke, no swimmy barfy feeling. Just a little localized pain (not bad) and hunger. Not like over the top tummy growling hunger....but a sluggish kind of punky, head achey.....damn I am hungry sense of not having enough gas in the tank.

A little nausea might take the edge off my overwhelming desire to eat an egg mcmuffin.

But nope. Now it's just a waiting game until it's legal to eat something and I feel oddly....annoyed....by my good luck.

Anyone else completely lack nausea?

Haha totally opposite!! From the moment I woke up in recovery and for 48 solid hours all I did was dry heave/vomit from the overwhelming nausea. They gave me every antiemetic possible and nothing took the edge off.

Thankfully, I haven't had any nausea or issues since then, but consider yourself lucky! I was positive that my new little pouch was going to burst open from the force of throwing up.

Oh my gosh, you're so fortunate, I'm really glad for you! I've had nausea from the moment I woke up after surgery. They threw every anti-nausea med (including an anti-anxiety med that I had no idea worked for nausea) they had at me in the hospital. I also used ginger aromatherapy (provided by the hospital). The only thing that helped was the ginger briefly, and the compazine and that completely knocked me on my butt, all I could do was sleep. Now that I'm home I'm taking zofrsn around the clock, as well as a med for stomach cramps called Levsin. Luckily I've avoided vomiting except for twice.

      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!
