2-3 days post op... still sick



Recommended Posts

I had my sleeve don’t Monday. I’m still in the hospital as I had a high heart rate. I have barley ate or drank but I’m staying hydrated via IV fluids. I’m sooo nauseous!! I wonder how long I’ll feel like this? I’m concerned because nauseous and throwing up bile... what happens when I have Protein Shakes or something in my stomach? Am I just gonna be vomiting all the time???

I was heaving for a couple days post surgery. Would've vomited but there was nothing in there to bring up.

It settled down soon enough though and I was fine by the time I went home.

Did the hospital give you zofran? That should help with the nausea.

While I was in the hospital I didn't drink much either, I kept trying just so I could get discharged to go home. And once I was home I felt much better because I was in my own house.

Also ask for a scopolamine patch for the nausea. Stops it dead in its tracks.

The patch and zofran is t working. Still in the hospital and they gave me Reglan which if better. I’m having the worst anxiety because I feel like I cannot get relief. I had surgery Monday and I do how long this will last but I hate it and I’m terrified to go home

Sorry to hear that but it will get better, I had my surgery 9/18 and it took me 6 days to feel normal again. so hang in there. I am just a week and two days out but it’s getting better every day

      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!!
