I have the same thing now pain on the right side. The doc called in something for nausea ,Our dates are the same.

Are you taking anything for nausea? I was sent home with some phenergan gel to apply to my wrists and it was a life saver!

Yes I was?. But it works a little

I was very nauseous for 2 weeks afterwards and then it stopped almost overnight. I only get nauseous now if I eat too fast. Remember your stomach is healing. Take things slowly and sip. I did better having ice cubes and sipping as the ice melted. It gets SO much better. Hang in there.

Thank you ! I was told sip water and ice chips. It gives me a little relief?. Starting tomorrow I can start with the protein shakes. Also what soups you think are good. After all the chicken broth etc. I so hate it now . Also the smell of it makes me sick.

Try caring temperatures of liquids to see if any difference affects you or try sugar free Popsicle's if they are on your plan.

I hate to sound negative.... 10 months post op and I still very much get nauseous and vomiting... all the darn time. It’s just how it is... I’ve accepted that. I’m sure down the road it’ll go away.

If I concentrate on putting my spoon down and chewing every bite completely, it slows down my eating and I don't get nauseous. This is difficult when eating with others because we all tend to eat quickly.

I added unflavored protein to vegetable and tomato soup in the beginning. I also added chipotle tabasco to my chicken broth. This added flavor without being spicy. If you can find them, I live on sugar free big sticks, they're better than popsicles. They are plain wrapped in a clear plastic bag usually in the bottom of the freezer section. I have found them at Vons and Stater Brothers. They help me get my fluids in and satisfy any craving.

You make a great point. Although I eat much faster than my boyfriend most the time... I need to just slow down

Easier said then done. Hang in there.
