Zero Post-op Nausea

I had my sleeve yesterday morning (6/4/19) and I have had zero nausea! I just wanted to share what my doc gave to head off post-op nausea. I put on a Scopolamine patch the night before surgery and then took an Emend on the way to the hospital for surgery. I truly believe these two things kept me from being nauseous. I know if insurance doesn't cover the Emend it can be pretty pricey. I say it is worth every penny!

I never had nausea when sleeved 5/1/19. And I did nothing preventative

I had a patch they put behind my ear, not sure if it's the same one you mentioned. I also had no nausea.

It is very different for everyone.

Most places use the hyoscine patch behind the ear now, which I had too, I also had ondansetron, cyclizine, prochlorperazine and still had horrendous nausea and vomiting. The other med you mention isn't used in the UK except for kids with cancer.

Congrats! I had great results too. I was only nauseated immediately post surgery for about an hour. Then I got a scapolamine patch and zofran in the iv and that took care of things!
