Nauseous hunger feeling



Recommended Posts

Hi All

Really need some help and advice. So I'm 9 weeks post op and introducing lots of lovely health solid foods again !

However, I have continually got what I can only describe as a b

Nauseous hunger feeling around my stomach and all I want to do is snack. Its a bit like acid reflux but there is no burning.

I've tried reducing portion and bite sizes and chewing more but its just constant.

Anyone else experienced this and will it ever go away ???

Thank u x x x

I take it your still suffering ?

Its a constant feeling for me and when I do eat its uncomfortable and then the feeling of nauseous hunger returns. ????

This sounds much like acid hunger. It’s not a real hunger. Just the acid increasing in your tummy. It disappears when you eat because you’re using the acid to digest the food. Are you taking esomeprazole?

Some surgeons don’t prescribe it. Some only for a short period. Mine told me I’d be on it forever as I naturally produced a lot of stomach acid & suffers from stress related reflux.

My friend was having the same problem & was snacking a lot. I suggested she start back on her esomeprazole because it sounded like stomach acid & her problem went.

Have a chat with your surgical team.

Good luck.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
