Nausea 4 years post op

[toodlerue 432]

I am 4 years post op & I have been plagued by nausea almost all day long. I wake up nauseous! This has been going on since at least February.
I currently take 3-4 8mg of Zofran a day & meclezine too. I keep my food intake to less then 4 oz at a time so I’m not over stuffing myself.
I am seeing a gastroenterologist & a naturopath & a urologist (I have asymptomatic Ecoli - I have it actively in my urine but have NO symptoms!)

I’m wondering if this could be from the bypass.
Anyone else dealt with any of this before?
I’m just tired of feeling so crummy most of the time. We are going on our 1st 7 day cruise in Sept & I don’t want to deal with this then!

Sorry you have been unwell. Apparently, nausea is a symptom of Ecoli. Not as common but still a symptom. So maybe the Ecoli is the cause of your nausea & not your bypass???

Regardless, I hope they can treat the Ecoli & can resolve the nausea.

I also think it's probably more likely due to the E. coli. This far out I'd be surprised if it was due to the bypass.

I agree with the above posters...however, regardless the reason, go back to SOMEBODY and tell them to put you on another drug, one that actually helps the symptoms. There's quite a few different drugs for nausea. Get a better one. It's called quality of life. Docs frequently won't do anything unless you stand up for yourself.
