Nausea 4 years post op



Recommended Posts

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.

      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!
