Hi all, I'm now almost a week out and experiencing pretty bad nausea. I have taken the prescribed suppositories to quell that but they aren't working. Anyone else experience this? I'm afraid I'll start to gag and rip my stitches.

Might be worth calling the Dr to get a different anti nausea med, some work better than others. Or you can try some ginger, that is good for nausea. Also I find deep breathing and fresh air helps at times with nausea.

How did the surgery go and what were your symptoms like before the surgery? Was the nausea ever a problem then?

Hi there. Are you eating any solids? We have all experienced nausea, cold sweats etc from eating the wrong thing too soon.

Hello, no solids yet. I think the pumpkin soup (strained; dairy-free) a friend brought me might have been bad. I woke up today and have been much better. Thank you so much for the advice though!

Your body can struggle with high fibre, fatty, starchy and dense foods for a while after any gastro surgery, so you might get that happening from a few things. Just be concious of what you are eating and stick to simpler easier to digest foods for a while.
