Nausea
I've had some nausea lately, too. It improved after a BM (sorry - but true). I would more nauseous when I was TOO hungry, but felt I couldn't get much in - I'd take a very small piece of meat or jerky and that seemed to help - but not too much or I'd throw up. What helped the most was small amounts of milk of magnesia and then eventually getting the bowels moving. I was getting to the point of vomitting and nauseous even after drinking water.
I would like you to tell me what your Doc has to say. Email me please. And I hope it gets better.
Hi Lynn!
I had my surgery on Oct. 26th, and have had constant nausea since.
My Dr. did try several different anti nausea drugs but none really helped.
However, I had not been able to keep anything down either. I just found out that I have a bad ulcer where the pouch and intestine are joined, and I am being treated for that. Now the nausea is gone and I am able to eat/drink.
I am on a full liquid diet until the ulcer goes away; but I am not nauseated anymore. Unfortunately, I had to be admitted to the hospital and just spent a week there because of dehydration.
So, don't do what I did and wait too long to talk to your Dr., ok?
Blessings,
Betsy
I have also been fighting my nausea since 10/27/04. It has made me eating any amounts of food impossible. It has resulted in a weight loss of 41 lbs and I started out at 219 lbs. Right now my Dr. has prescribed me a Reglan/Phenergan combination along with Prevacid and has began to hold my vitamins for a while. If your Dr. comes up with something that will help you and gives you ease please let me know I would really appreciate it.
