Hi guys, okay so today the weirdest thing happened. I’m almost 6 wks out and today I went to chipotle and got cauliflower rice and it was sooo good. On the second bite I started vomiting from the smell. Has this happened to anyone and is this something I’ll have to get use to? I haven’t been nauseous since after recovery. Please give me some insight.

This happened to me when my husband cooked brussel sprouts. 🤮. I’m 3.5 weeks post op.

I almost feel like I did when I have been pregnant, a super smelling nose and easily nauseated by it.

It’s quite common for people post surgery to experience changes in their taste buds & a sensitive sense of smell. For me it was just my taste that changed. Foods I usually enjoyed suddenly tasted disgusting. It does go back to what it was in a few months.

The unexpected vomiting can happen too. I was eating a meal I’d made & frozen individual serves. Had a bite fine. Had a second bite & oh no & a mad dash to the bathroom. Didn’t affect me when I ate it the first time & it didn’t do it a couple weeks later when I tried it again. I just blamed my petulant, temper tantrum throwing tummy.

Good luck on your journey.

I found that my super sensitive vomit button got better as time went on, from week 2 to 6 was crazy and then it really got much better. I only get the gags now when I put something in my mouth now that is one too many or something that just isn't going to set well and I should better :)

Yeah, you're gonna be more sensitive to smells for a while I think.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
