2 days after surgery.. Help please
VSG on 02/14/12
Are you still in the hospital? I also suffered from a lot of nausea after surgery (the whole day of surgery and half of the next day)-my surgeon visited me in the hospital several times and assured me that it was caused by the anesthesia and that once it was out of my system I would feel better. My surgical nurse also told me that it was important to keep taking deep breaths because that helps remove the anesthesia from your system and helps get your organs working propertly again. There are also medicines that can be put in your IV and given once you get home, please check with your doctor and I hope this helps and that you feel better soon.
I had it bad when I came home from the hospital for 1.5 days...yes it woke me up in the night with the run to the toilet... I never threw up just dry heaves.... but bad...I had ice chips and also a very cold cloth in the bathroom with me that I put on my forehead and back of my neck..I also had alcohol swabs there so when I was feeling ill at the toilet..I would sniff these and it helped a lot... It does get better... HANG IN THERE and keep sipping
Hi, Sorry you're having a difficult time! The first few days I had a lot of nausea also, but didn't have any vomiting. If your nausea is that bad, please contact your doctor. Thinks do get better after a few days, so hang in there! I was given zofran for nausea, and it helped some of the time. Good luck. Sharon

for me the nausea was from what hey gave me for pain and if I remember something else they gave me in I.v. all I could say was please help me to the nurses.
Finally changed me to Demerol and took me off the other thing and was all better.
Ask your Dr to change pain Med or try it. No nausea Med helped me until they got meds changed around.
Best of luck. I know it doesn't mean much now but at worst another day or 2 and you will be off that stuff altogether.
