[jsafrica 3]

I had surgery yesterday and cannot keep anything down. Not ice chips nor sugar free popsicles. Is this normal??

I was able to keep things down but in very low, low amounts. A lot of deep breaths to keep it under control. It's from the anesthesia and will last around 24 hours.

I experienced this for two days straight. I get nauseous from the pain meds and the anesthesia. I finally convinced my care team to stop all pain meds and then the nausea went away. I also could only consume 1 oz via small sips/licks over the course of 15 mins. I just went super slow. I also felt less nauseous if all lights were off, curtains drawn, and no visitors. Just needed to relax and breathe. No reading, tv, phone, thinking. Took it real easy.
