Hello All I was banded on May 19th came home all was good minus the normal gas in my shoulder went to work on Thursday and Friday felt fine all weekend, today Day 8 post op I woke up so sick to my stomach its not funny, I could bearly drink water today, :sad: did anyone else experiance the upset stomach after feeling really good at the start? I am worried there is something wrong at this point- I see the doctor for first post op visit on Thursday.

If you're not better by morning, go ahead and call your doc. Or if you get worse by then. Esp if you're not getting enough water in and/or vomitting. I pray it's just after-effects of the anesthesia, but still, nothing to linger on with, so be safe and it won't hurt to call.

If you are still taking you pain meds they can really mess up your stomach. (Mine did today.) After being off them a day or two, it should improve.

Thank you Neverb4, actually feeling much better today, I took some of the medication for upset stomach my doc gave me last night and woke up feeling much better today- I hope that never happens again.. :sad:

I do too! It can be discouraging and upsetting not knowing what is going on after this type of surgery. I'm so glad you're feeling better today!!!

Talk about bizarre! I was banded on 5/20 and exactly 8 days after I had a case of nausea too! Felt fine the next day. Couldn't figure out what I had eaten that made me sick. Now I'm wondering if it wasn't what I ate at all! What's the significance of 8 days, I wonder?

Don't know about you guys, but you might be running a slight fever from the surgery and drinking protein shakes made with milk. The two did not agree with me!

I felt amazing after surgery all day thursday, and even all day friday. It wasn't until sometime Saturday afternoon I was struck with the most intense nausea, dizzyness, and lightheadedness ever!! I could barely move and I kept thinking, WHAT DID I DO TO MYSELF!!!!!!! I'm glad your starting to feel better too!!!!!
