I am 3 days post op NOW I am a loser!

Hi, My surgery was 3 days ago. I got back from the hospital today and am staying in a very nice hotel with my DH and several other Post Op americans here in Curitiba Brazil. I am feeling pretty good. Though the first day or 2 were pretty rough. I had a lot of nausea. I am pretty tired and a little sore. I am wearing an abdominal binder wish is actually helping me feel more comfortable (I think things don't jiggle around so much with it). I am having a difficult time with hunger pains and nausea. I get very hungry and my stomach grawls and I than start feeling nauseated. I am eating chicken soup with mostly broth and low fat yogurt today. I eat very slowly. I still can't get the hang of feeding the tummy and avoiding nausea. I also have VERY lose stools right now. But otherwise I feel pretty good. I can't wait to get back to the US though and my kids. Will update again later.

Hi Robin, I was banded on Tuesday and I had waves on nauseau until I got something in my stomach. They did give me nauseau suppositories in case this feeling returns. They don't want vomiting to occur. I also am loose in the undie dept. I talked with the PA and the Dietician and they think that the CIB I once tolerated I can no longer. I am going to try lactaid to rule this out. Stay well and keep on sipping. I'm right with you. Congratulations! Joan F
