Question:
Why am I always Nausea

I am 3 weeks post op. Every morning I wake up Nausea. I don't even want to get out of bed but have to get ready for work. WHen I try to eat I am always getting sick. Does anyone have any ideas how to rid myself of the nausea?    — Jennifer L. (posted on August 6, 2001)

I had this for a long while my doctor prescribed Pepcid 2x day , it really helped. Call your doctor , maybe you are developing an ulcer. Good luck.

Jennifer, I am 3 and 1/2 weeks post-op and still have this problem. I also wake up so thirsty, but water will make me sick. I suck on a sugar-free popsicle first thing, or drink warm tea of some type. Takes the edge of the nausea for me, then I can drink water and have my pureed "meal". You may want to contact your surgeon. There are many liquid medications that help combat nausea. I am impressed that you are back to work already. Don't overdo or wear yourself out! Good luck as you continue on your journey towards better health.
