I was banded on 1/10/08 and have had a lot of nausea when i go walk. ALso when I swallow water, it hurts my throat. I was wondering if this is normal?

Thanks,

Jenny

Hi Jenny. I was banded on 1/9/08. My throat was sore for a couple of days. They told me it was from the anesthesia breathing tube. Maybe they had a difficult time intubating you. I too was nauseated when I walked too much. But it is alot better today.

I had both the sore throat and nausea for the first three days. It was from the anesthesia. I felt horrible for the first 3 days but felt much better each day after that. I guess that is the time it took for all the anesthesia to leave my body!

throat soreness is from the breathing tube, and nausea for the gas

Thanks for all the replies. I was beginning to think something was wrong!

If the nausea lasts more than a few days, it might be the painkillers they sent you home with. I was banded on the 9th and that's what happened to me. Switched to liquid tylenol and no more nausea.
