I am always feeling nauseated throughout the day. Doesn't matter if I just ate or haven't eaten yet. Always happens. Has anyone else gone through this? I had VSG on Feb 9th of this year.

Are you drinking enough water? Nausea can be a sign of dehydration.

You need 64oz of fluids every day (everything wet counts), no fail.  If you're not gettng that, your body is reacting.

David, if you'll set up a profile, and post your surgery type and date there, it will show up each time you post. This info will help us help you.

Dehydration will make you feel like CRAP. Are you drinking at least  half-gallon (64 ounces) each and every day? (More is better.)

Have you talked to your surgeon about this? There are anti-nausea meds that can REALLY help.

 

Without knowing your surgery type or how far post-op you are, I really don't know what else to suggest.

Hello, I too dealt with being nauseous for the first couple of months after my surgery.  I tried taking zofran, but it did nothing.  What did help was constantly drinking warm green tea.  It helped with the nausea and soothed my stomach.  Good luck finding what works for you and hopefully it will pass soon!

You don't say what surgery you had or when. Try sipping water through out the day and when you do eat make sure it's on your list of foods to eat. Make sure you take smal/tiny bites. Feeling sick to your stomach so early out can happen. It should get better.  I am assuming you just had surgery. 

Keep us posted on how you are doing.

Sorry about that, I had VSG on Feb 9th. From what others are saying I don't think I am getting enough water. more than my usual yes but not enough I believe.

it could be excess stomach acid. Are you taking a PPI like Nexium?

What helps me is using a 32 oz water bottle. That way I know I need to drink two a day.
