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. ????

That’s exactly how I feel. Sometimes zofran helps but I don’t like taking those because they can cause Constipation.

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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
