I just finished my 5th week and am on soft and mushy foods.  Yesterday I woke up feeling really nauseous.  It lasted all day and again today.  I don't feel like eating or drinking at all.  Taking meds mixed in yogurt made me gag but I had to do it.  I've been following the eating plan to the letter and hadn't even tried anything new.  I don't feel sick except for the nausea.  Fortunately I have some liquid phetergran left from the surgery.  Has anyone else experienced this after a few weeks?  I've felt really great and done well up until now.  I'd love someone to talk to who has been through this already.

I am four weeks out today and I am nauseous when I wake up in the middle of the night and in the morning too. I can't even think about getting anything down until around 9-10am. I wake up at 530am. I saw my doc yesterday for my one month post op visit. He wants me to take my nexium as soon as I wake up. I don't know if that will help. He gave me Zofran whick I put on my tongue and let it melt. It's hard to take when I'm so nauseous and it's not working. I would give your doc a call. Mine doesn't last all day  though.

Hi Kim, 
I know this post is older, but I need some help. My boyfriend is 5 weeks out this tuesday. He is having a very hard time even wanting to eat. Smells are making him nauseated. He has a hard time with the liquid protein...he gets so sick to his stomach.. he is able to drink water with out gagging.. So my question to you is this.. per your above post, how long did this last for you? 
Thank you so much for you help, 
Shannon
