Nausea after surgery...what is your experience?



Recommended Posts

I'm nearly 2 weeks post op. Am having nausea at times that is very unpleasant and there has been no change to what I'm eating. Is this still normal? What are other's experiences with nausea? Does it settle? How long did it take? Or is this something we have to put up with?

Sorry to hear that you are experiencing this. You are only 2 weeks out. Give yourself time to heal. Things are going to change over time. Welcome to the surgery losers bench.

Thank you. I think I'm starting to just be getting a bit more emotional

Emotions are also understandable.

This is sometimes a point where people feel a bit of buyers remorse and emotions. Give things time. Once you are able to get real food in and see your weightloss progress your emotions will be more positive.

Take care of yourself. Great things to come!

I'm still on Zofran, supposed to stop at 14 days but still emesis prone. Missed my 4 o'clock dose, just upchucked cottage cheese. Not worth it to cut a dose.😐

In some states it's the Queen's Birthday holiday. In my state it was last weekend. But who doesn't love a holiday Monday? :)

The nausea thing just started for me this afternoon. We had gone out to pick up V8 (my new favourite thing) and I had a cup of peppermint green tea. Once we got home I had this huge wave of nausea that I just cannot shake, even with ondansetron. I'm hoping it's just the tea that upset my poor little pouch and that it settles with resumption of Water and my other thin liquids.

That sounds about right frust8. It was done at Ohio State. Sounds like you should have traveled north to Ann Arbor at University of Michigan. Lol

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
